Asked why he chose to contact Obama by the email address Gafishi responded that e-mail address is more reliable and respectful to communicate to Obama who is one of the most influential people in the world.

Excited Gafishi opened about how he contacted Obama: “I sent him a letter by Email, he answered me. I didn't think he would answer me. I asked him my personal questions about being a good leader because our countries need good leaders,” said Gafish, who added that after he sent the letter to Obama by Email, he received a personal letter accompanied with another letter that he shared to the public. Asked what would happen if a person who replied to him was not a real Barack Obama, he said, ‘’I know very well, it is him and he replied on Tuesday, 14/05/2019 at noon’’.

“I want to become a President of Rwanda. (…) I feel like I am going to be the President of our country. I do not know when it will be, but I feel it will be thanks to God's grace. I'm looking for what God wants to use me but I know that God wants to use me in ruling our country.”
