00:00For years, Dr. Gregory Bissessa has been a familiar figure alongside his wife, Prime Minister Kamala Posada-Bissessa, at public
00:07events.
00:08But at last evening's Diwali celebrations in Separia, his absence did not go unnoticed.
00:14Mrs. Posada-Bissessa took a moment during her address to explain why her husband was unable to attend,
00:20revealing that he continues to experience difficulty walking following injuries sustained in a car accident just before the 2025 general
00:29elections.
00:30Many people have been asking me, where is he?
00:33You all know he would always be by my side to attend most functions.
00:37Where is he? You're not seeing him.
00:40Well, Greg is sorry he cannot join us here tonight.
00:44Because, you see, during the last election campaign, just a couple of days or two weeks maybe for the most,
00:53he sustained physical injuries in a car accident.
00:57We were on a way to a meeting in Sandy Grandi and a car ran into the side of our
01:02vehicle.
01:02And because of that, those injuries that he sustained in that car accident, he has difficulty in walking.
01:12She said that despite his physical challenges, his spirit remains strong.
01:16I thank him very much.
01:19But his great spirit and immense brain power remains very strong.
01:24To those of you who sent your love to him, he sends back his love to you.
01:29Through the demands and difficulties of public life, Greg remains my rock and a steady light.
01:37Greg, thank you for your courage.
01:40Thank you for your patience.
01:41Thank you for your unwavering love.
01:43I could not have made this journey without him.
01:46Drawing on the Hindu epic Ramayana, she reminded those of God to cherish the people who stand beside them through
01:52hardship.
