That is where you are headed. When I made my remarks earlier, I told you that the President called me and we had a meeting with the Deputy President. This morning, I spoke with the CS, Ministry of Interior and Coordination of National Government whose responsibility is under matters of disaster management. I appreciate my colleague saying that all of these high-ranking officials from the President, the Deputy President and the Cabinet Secretary (CS) should go there. However, I only have a problem with him trying to say that there is no other high-ranking member in this country after the Deputy President. Does he not know that the President is the leader of this Republic?"}
