I was fighting known enemies while enemies within were pulling me down. God punish you all.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey said if it can\u2019t be me, then it can\u2019t be Ododo. They were busy conniving and conspiring with the opposition. They call themselves leaders but were misleading the people.

He shall succeed. I thank God I never made a mistake in the choice of Ahmed Ododo.
