naomipaul23:“The apology has to match the insult and be delivered the same way. We need a public apology; we need him to address the nation just like the way he insulted, humiliated her, and Stevo Simpo Boy on national television. Otherwise, the rest is just empty talk! As a man of God, as he calls himself, I have so many questions. To reach that level, I wonder what goes on behind public eyes.”
i.am_polycarp:“Kakishiba hakasumbui 😁.”
