“They said I was doing cocaine and many other things, so, a friend told me that the government wants to arrest me, and, so, I should be very careful [because] somebody is going to put cocaine in my office or in my restaurant, either in the toilet or somewhere and I will be arrested for it.”

“My life is more important to me, so, I closed it [the pizza restaurant] down. The person brought me pictures of me travelling abroad in the airline, pictures they took when I’m picking up containers.”

He said it was easy to decide on the closure of the restaurant because it was not yielding enough profit as compared to his other businesses.

Ayariga and 12 other presidential nominees from different political parties in the country were disqualified from contesting the December polls after the Electoral Commission identified anomalies in their nomination forms.
