"Who is Witherspoon to tell you to call me before you can call me, if I put on a cap of President Weah, you can reach to me but witherspoon to tell you to call, even Ambassador Boakai has never visited my house to sympathy with me" he said.

"I'm traveling on Wednesday and return on November 14, 2023 to vote for the opposition, I'm leaving all my phones here and no one should call me because I will answer," he added.
