"Things like free SHS, one district one dam (1D1D), one district one factory (1D1F) for the farmers. I was more interested about the factories because I come from the North and the numbers we have over there if you have factories that can employ people," he said.

Chale, I've been Samini a fan for so many years, but in his recent interviews, hmmm, I feel he should just promote his craft rather than answering all these questions; just ignore them, la hm.
