I know I trust people too much, although I try to be a bit firm, but it is a fault that we have learnt from my father.

Before slavery, Africa had a culture. We had medicine and our cure for malaria. Slavery brought diseases that we were not used to; slavery brought industry and people were criticizing industry way back as 2,000 years ago, that it was going to pollute the air, sea. Industry is not the way. We must deal with nature.

I believe in the Creator. I don't believe the creator is God. If you change G-O-D the other way, it becomes dog.

We need to teach our children history, right from the primary school level, for them to better understand the issues. In my son's school they don't teach history.

I don't smoke or drink, but I will not tell you that I won't smoke again. Probably I will when I'm 60.

Spirituality is when we can't explain everything in life, totally. So, we have a spiritual meaning for it; we don't know why we are here really.

Looking deeper into African way of life, it wasn't religious; it was spiritual. When you go into spiritualism, spiritualism will teach you about virtues, how to be patient, humble and kind.
