Thank you to our Prime Minister, the Rt Hon Jacinda Ardern, and the Hon Grant Robertson for your leadership and also for your personal support to me. I'm here today because of the inspiration and support of many, many people, too many to name. Everyone I have met along the way has made an impact in my life and enriched it—thank you. This includes the people from my early life in Eritrea, to my family who passed on to me the values of social justice from a very young age—I send my love from afar. To everyone who helped me to get through, early in my days in Sudan, my cellmates in Kober Prison, the UNHCR, the people I nervously shared the plane to New Zealand with, and the friends I made in Māngere. Ngā mihi nui ki a koutou.
