My party is committed to a federation.

I rejected the armed struggle because, as a Christian, I am committed to a nonviolent and peaceful struggle. But people take their own initiatives, because it is a Lebanon type of situation here.

The IFP is here to put into practice what we preach.

I have been in America only once since Mr. Clinton became your president - as a speaker at the United Nations.

I am not the kind of leader who pontificates about what should be done - I don't operate on scenarios, and I am not a prophet.

For our white members, voting is something they have done for hundreds of years. But for us, it is not such a traumatic thing, because we have never participated in an election.
