She wrote; The lonely voice in the wilderness.. I will rather walk alone than walk with the crowd and get missing. I salute his courage, I salute his wisdom and I commend his bravery. Only few men of honor are left. 99.9% of us have sold our conscience to the devil, money and greed. We who are suppose to be the mouth piece of our people given the platform we have, will rather remain silent because we are in bed with those that rob our people of their basic human dignity. We are quick and swift to show off ...
