He sincerely appreciated our efforts on the successful Grand Converge, we just finished even though he complained that we didn’t invite him personally, but we asked for his forgiveness that next time we will take note of that, he prayed, blessed us and wished us success as we rode on two wheels.”
The Bikers group disclosed that they also visited council Caretaker chairman, where they had great time, “We then proceeded to the home of our Distinguished Chairman (Caretaker) Kaltungo, Hon. Faruk where we had a very warm reception. With us are Col. Johnson who is also a Biker, HRH Sardaunan Pindiga and the rest of us the Jewel Bikers,” the statement said.
