One must be frank to be relevant.

My biggest disappointment was, of course, the coup attempts, ... The economy was proceeding very well, but in 1989 we had the most serious coup attempt and ... many of the investors who were set to come here had to tell me that they chose to go to other countries because of the uncertainty brought about by (the coup attempt.) If that had not happened, I'm sure our economy would just be booming today.

I was very privileged and really blessed with so many material and spiritual gifts that I should give back, ... I should do something for my people, but ... it's not just in politics that you can be a servant of the people, you can do it in so many other ways.

All the world wondered as they witnessed... a people lift themselves from humiliation to the greatest pride.

I salute the 51 congressmen who voted (for the impeachment complaints.) It's not over yet. There will always be hope.

The government cannot do everything all at once. It can't wave a magic wand and meet everyone's demands simultaneously.

It is not I who have been consigned to the bedroom of history.
