In his words: ‘’I have decided to join Governor Otti in Labour party because I have looked at the things he has done so far for the good of our state…
‘’Judging from his antecedents and what he has done, I had thought that he is a seasoned banker but I never knew he was a seasoned administrator and he came prepared for the job. Today I’m really happy and my constituents are happy that I have joined Labour Party. Even the blind could see that this man came prepared.
‘’He made my job as an opposition very difficult because I have nothing to criticise him with, even when the talk comes, the next moment he is doing it, so he makes it difficult for me, I have no other choice than to join him.’’
Hon. Anderson also commended Governor Otti on his development strides namely, reconstruction of roads and schools in the state.
