“He gave voice to millions of voiceless people across the country. In the days of the culture of silence, especially after 2001, when many people could not speak, many people who held positions in the NDC and they retreated to the background, Alhaji Bature offered himself”, he said.

“He’s redeemed so many people who came to him seeking solutions to their personal problems. He did it for them without looking at who they are”, he stated.

“He stood for the interest of this nation. He put his life on the line. He was even arrested and incarcerated in BNI because of his activities for freedom. So this is a man whose life is larger than just even a political party and even the life of politics”, A.B.A Fuseini declared.
