Eeeeeeww! God save us

Why didn't he say it all this years He is a gold digger!

Am sure he is tryna find favour in the side of the President

I know baba[apc warlord] won't mind the gold digger. Even when it was announced that buhari won the election he and his wife flew from their residential mansion in Lagos and went to Abuja to congratulate him* isn't that eye service? He has bitten the hand that feed him.

Quote me not coz I won't answer you .

He allowed himself to be 'pushed out' because he's an honourable man.

Former governor of Cross River state Donald Duke says former President Jonathan told him and former president Obasanjo he never wanted to be the Vice president of Nigeria when he was selected to be the running mate to late President Umaru Yar'Adua for the 2007 general election. Donald Duke said this in an interview with news magazine, The Interviewer

"You don’t give authority to an unwilling person, particularly in a country like Nigeria. Umaru never wanted to be president. He was dealing with his health issues and wanted to retire and go lecture in a university. He was really offered an appointment at the Ahmadu Bello University in Zaria. Jonathan, on the other hand, had just been re-elected to be governor of Bayelsa and when he was picked, he was not so pleased. He said to Obasanjo and me, ‘I don’t want this job".
If these two men never aspired to the office but were recruited to take on a responsibility as daunting as the management of Nigeria without mentally preparing for the office and having a grand vision of where they wanted to take Nigeria to, then there is a problem. The mental preparation is absolutely important. The vision can be scripted for you, but if you are not prepared and you have no capable team to help you follow through, it is grossly unfair. It is like converting a passenger on an aircraft to a pilot.”

The Baboon of the Federal Republic always believes he is the king maker and wants Aso Rock to be his second home. We are where we are because a certain baboon drafted the imperfect script.
