CCC leader Nelson Chamisa defended his record when he was the Minister of Information and Communication Technology from 2009 to 2013 during the Government of National Unity (GNU) era.
In a post on Twitter, Chamisa said he was privileged to have served the country as Minister of Information Communication Technology in the Inclusive Government and was ready to serve again in a different capacity.
