On whether he had resumed at his new office, the Deputy Governor replied;

“We have resumed but there is still a lot of work to be done there.

"I took a personal vow to support my governor and you can see my Catholic people are here. When I took a vow with God, nothing can change it and I wish that the relationship that we had will come back in the next few days and weeks.

"am missing my governor and by the grace of God, He will touch the governor’s heart and touch all of us and even those that are between us.
