  1. No shame at all this conman.

    He has now hijacked the ceremony to project his own political propaganda. How do you hold a rally at a traditional ceremony? This is the reason he was not invited, yet he still gate crashed claiming he would attend as a mere citizen. Now that he is there, he is not behaving like a mere citizen.

    Vote wisely in 2026.
