In response to the criticism, Gill shared a message of unity on 'X', stating, "Calm seas don't teach you how to steer, it's the storm that forges steady hands. We'll continue to believe in each other, fight for each other, and move forward - rising stronger." Despite the setback, Gill remains optimistic about the future.
