Kolulah said, “I hereby reaffirm my opposition to the Weah-led government until it can use the available resources with which this country is endowed to revitalize the ailing economy and give our citizens a life of dignity. While I remain an influential member of the Alternative National Congress, I will be willing to join ranks with any group of citizens to demand our government to do the right thing.”
He thanked the members of the Council of Patriots for demonstrating love for country.
