“Harmony is the bedrock of advancement. There is no supportable improvement without harmony, harmony takes roots when individuals are liberated from hunger neediness, joblessness, concealment and double-dealing, we need to cooperate to save our kin from the overarching scourge of savagery and uncertainty that have brought impossible despondency ,injury and dread to our compatriot in the state.”
