“The Club helped in shaping my life which is an addition to making my political career easy.
“Organisations and individuals should be involved in development projects so that we can collectively, make our society better than we met it.”
He assured organisations and individuals of the support of Rt. Hon. Sheriff Oborevwori’s administration for them to succeed.
