There is an old man called Boroufa Kansab who lost ...

I went to Ileretin in my county and visited police posts and police stations. The houses they live in were built in 1950s. I would like Mr. Kanja to visit Ileret, so that he can see how police officers live there and many other police stations. The other issue I would like to raise with Mr. Kanja, if he is approved, is about two Korean missionaries ...
