Just had an incredible meeting with Dr Barbel Kofler, the Parliamentary State Secretary of the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development, Germany. She is a true trailblazer and leader in every sense of the word. You're such an inspiration.

There are far too many unhealthy contentions, bickering and controversies lately in our democracy. APC Vs SLPP! APC Vs JUDICIARY! SLPP Vs International Election observers! Civil society Vs Each other! We can’t take this anymore Vs We have taken enough! In all of this, some MIGHT be winning but our democracy is not maturing. Democracy is about dialogue, negotiations and compromises. We can start with a healthy dialogue for the sake of the peace and growth of our country. Country before our personal wins. Nation above ego!
