after fulfilling his bail conditions. In a statement released by
the former Minister of Aviation, he said his trial and detention
While expressing thanks to all those who stood by him in his
trying times, he reiterated his innocence while stating his
readiness to stand trial and vigorously defend himself and
concluded by vowing that the struggle would continue.
"I give thanks to God that I am free after 67 days in detention. I
thank my wife, lawyers, children and friends for all their
support. This was the worst experience of my life but God was
with me all the way. I suffered immeasurably but I count it all
as joy. I am innocent of all charges and I look forward to
defending myself vigorously in court. These charges are
politically motivated and I have been severely punished for my
political views and criticisms of the government. They are
trying to silence me, break me, discredit me and destroy but
as long as Jesus is on the throne this will never work. I am
strong and I am bold and the struggle will continue.
