A big congratulations to my very good friend and
brother. This is
long-awaited, and I am glad you got it. The result of your work in the
movement speaks for itself.
Again, this is a double congratulations. As a football fan that I am, I
don't agree that the Nations Cup should go to the Ivory Coast because we
were better on the day than your team. Nevertheless, it's a big win for you
and your country.
Remember, to whom much is given, much is expected.
More WINS!
Cheers
