Fayose describing himself as a rock??

Tot OBJ broke the rock into pieces sometimes ago...

Buhari wouldn't want to deal with Fayose so that they wouldn't see him as a dictator...

As for wike, just know that Karma is a bitch...whatever you sow, you reap. if truly FG is interested in rigging, they will rig successfully and you will do nothing. Most you approach the court, and they retire the judges and put in judges who are sympathisers to APC.

Corellating all been said, its evident that most Nigeria leaders have already lost tge track. Reasoning in a hoofty melodrama and siloqiosis of infredum. Due to the Trump background, one can easily say he's been oppotuned and flunted.



Anyways...
