Example Sentence: 53-year-old Robert Romawia Royte, Mizoram’s Minister for Sports and Tourism took the local youth by surprise as he joined the workers to nonchalantly carry a stone on his shoulders, and walk up the slope to leave it at the construction site.

Turning labourer for a day is par for the course for Mr. Royte, who has worn many hats — a footballer-turned-government officer-turned businessman-turned-politician.
