The people of Foni Jarrol district has expressed disappointment in their NAM as according to them, he should play a key role in solving political crises lawfully has now defended injustice, therefore, they want to clarify the doubt in people that those who gave false statements to the media have not even met the Alkalos or council of elders to discuss anything on foni Jarrol giving a voice that they will rally behind the incumbent.
Foni Jarrol strongly condemns the strange move made by these few individuals and equally condemns the incumbent’s reflection of the election result and finally advised the APRC supporters not to engage in petty talks and subscribe to the peaceful transfer of power to the president elect.
