“Many people came to vote for us because they wanted good governance. During the campaign, people came to see me not because I wanted to give them something, but because of what I had done for them while I was governor.
“All the structures that I built 12, 13 years ago are still there, but what the current government built, within a year, has been destroyed.
“So our people have seen the difference. Some people have told me that since I left government, they haven’t seen a real government presence in their community.”
