Gasim’s statement, “I don’t care if no voter is there to support me; my focus remains on fulfilling my responsibilities,” reflects his determination to press forward in his campaign efforts. He iterated that his motivation is rooted in his duty to the public, regardless of the current level of backing.

However, Gasim’s remarks have stirred a flurry of reactions across social media platforms. Many netizens have taken to various platforms to express their views on his stance. 

Critics argue that the degree of citizen support is intricately linked to the existing backing within the community. They assert that merely voicing one’s convictions with a tone of anger does not inherently generate additional support.
