Fayemi said, “We do not want this, we did not pray for this, it is not our desire, it is not our expectation. If this is your wish Lord, we can only pray that you give your children the courage, the fortitude to bear this unfortunate development.

“We are human, we are flesh, so we are not going to see it the way you see it Lord; we are going to be pained and we are pained..

“You will continue to provide all that we need to look after the children, to look after his wife and all that we your servant can do to assist the family.”
