Good thing for CSR,but I hope some governors will not claim honour for this.

SHELL is doing this much with N2 billion and Bode George stole N80 billion, Lucky Igbenidion stole N3 billion, Obasanjo cannot account for $20 billion, GEJ cannot account for $20 billion, $1 billion needed to fight boko haram, LASG builds a 2km road with N2 billion, $10 billion Power Project lost in China power project as contract expires. Femi Otedola donates N10 billion secretariat to PDP, $90 billion Gulf war proceeds missing, DSP Alams builds fence for N4 billion (what of house) Even Nigerian Pastors can throw that much cash around on private jets alone. Nigerians. Wake the f@#uck up!!!
