I would consider things in a different way. Mr. President I have always adopted as his son. He was the brother of my father and it was necessary for me to visit him so he can give me good advice. This is not an easy task. This is one of the heads of state of the continent's most respected. Why do you think I am going good advice? So actually I have no merit. In fact, I benefit.
