“I have discussed with them, and they reasoned, that the celebration should be put on hold, basically because of the current situation in the country and what the people are going through.
“I am very sure that very soon, the challenges facing the country will be over and we will all be happy for it.
“I am putting it on hold because of the masses, of which I am a part. Thank you all for your understanding!”.
