Am not coming back as me, it is my supporters who asked me to come back for another term since they still need to benefit from the projects I had started. I am going to re-ignite them and ensure they benefit my people,” he said.
” But am also coming back for only one term and leave the political arena. I am also training another person to come in my footsteps like I did while still the counselor, ” he added
