“This is not the first time I am doing this. I do it to know what is happening in town. You know, taxi drivers have information, and when people sit in the car, I am able to engage them because I do not get to meet them often. Before they even realise I am the MP, they would have reached their destination. It helps me to know what is happening on the ground. I will be doing this for three days,” he said.
