I see a nation that is ready to move forward.
We have more in common than what separates us.
We have a redneck and a nincompoop who could pass his tests in school.
RW is our leader, a leader with an undivided vision.
Voters,
Let us show the world what we are and what we are capable of, and how we can bring about change.
We were not born to stand in the queues created by the GR regime.
We were not born to stand in a line for a day and a half four petrol to take our children to school.
RANIL is our only option; the rest are malingerers who are out to enrich their agendas.
It is only RW who can write the next great chapter in the history of our land in the most extraordinary story ever told.
