What was wrong for him to be fired its like government is working under Triberiseme y
Am loving this news
What was he fired for
Let’s face facts. This is The worst president in our countrys history
Corruption is the main killer of the economy
We only know how to fire people we can’t fix issue
It is what it is
I don’t think he’s doing anything better about fighting corruption.
The name Kamiji sounds like from NW province. So, a Miti from Eastern replaces Kamiji supposedly from NW. Smells tribalism
