"“We have so far achieved a lot in terms of democracy and human rights so we need to tighten a bit in order to consolidate this milestone. There are many sectors that are lacking women. It's high time women occupy that vacuum,”"

"“The businessmen, the educated and government leaders especially commissioners should not stick to the standing orders that are rigid and hinder development”.

"“The large population is an immediate market. We cannot survive on a small population since we haven't learned how to create the market in the other way. Reducing the population is not a revolutionary thing. Africa is not yet full,”"
