I am the elected president of Liberia, not Ellen Sirleaf. They stole my victory, and I am here to say loud and clear that I am the winner of the elections.

I am an artist... I am here to live out loud.

I am constitutionally competent to contest the elections.

These elections should be about the issues that confront our people, the issue of lack of safe drinking water, electricity, roads, education, agriculture, health care and the plight of our young people, and re-integration of ex-combatants. These are the issues that we must deliberate on.

I am an austere president.

I am here wrongfully convicted and wrongfully sentenced.
