Get over it soon

HzRF:

Get over it soon

no, we humans cannot do anything about it

Even Buhari's team had to ply the road on their way to Ebonyi for campaign.

Good.

One of the smoothest road in Nigeria today. Fixed under GEJ. Nobody born of a woman would deny the General improvements in our transportation sector in the last 3 years- roads, rails, inland waterways and seaports.

GEJ carry go....
