"We will ensure everyone receives their due respect and rights. Bribery and corruption in courts and offices will be eradicated. Farmers will receive fair prices for their produce, and workers will be paid their rightful wages," he pledged.
He stressed the importance of national unity to maintain stability, warning against conspiracies by "allies of fallen dictator" aimed at destabilising the nation.
He urged people to remain vigilant and not fall into traps set by such groups.
