"... to enable the ANC strategically position itself effectively in the operational environment and craft a suitable road map moving forward without feeling suffocated by my views and suggestions," he said.
 

"I also want to create a reasonable leg-room between myself and Mudavadi to safeguard and sustain our friendship, respect and positive professional engagements that has been in existence over 25 years."

"I doubt that i could add more value to what i have done so far. Moreover, it is now fitting that the space around you should be de-congested. this will allow you to make critical decisions on the population and leadership of the party under the new constitution," Muluka said.
