She emphasised that the 2027 elections will be different, as she plans to approach them with greater decisiveness than in the last elections.
She said: “The truth of the matter is, for me, the way I was in 2023 cannot be the way I will be in 2027. It can’t be because… I know what I lost without collecting a kobo, no matter how much is seen. I lost two ambassorial deals, one 10 million, one 15 million, because of the election, because of Obidient movement. I almost lost my marriage.
“I almost lost my marriage but the fundamental thing is that I voted my conscience and choice.”
