I address you all today, taking full responsibility and seeking your pardon with my deepest regrets for the distress and turmoil caused by the events surrounding the premiere of “AJAKAJU.”

Please accept my sincerest apologies for any distress my actions may have caused during this sacred time”.

I am deeply sorry for any pain or discomfort my actions may have caused, and I am committed to learning and growing from this experience.
