„And because he believes numbers don’t lie, he minces no words in explaining them, and will not consult the political weather bulletin on when to expose them.

Because no single person or family has a monopoly over the talent, intelligence, skill, and good intentions for our country.

We cannot afford to do otherwise.
„We must prioritize projects already partially built. Half a bridge is equivalent having no bridge at all. Then we have to focus on widening our major arteries. Especially where traffic jams occur daily. The wastage of people's time and fuel runs into billions not counting the inefficient use of trucks which deliver goods.“
