ur **** is epic and unequalled. 8 years ko, 1/2 year ni.

I support Willie obiano for President

8. Aduwo Oluwasegun.

Unfortunately non will be the president of nigeria.

Once upon a time, Nuhu stood a chance. Adesina isn't actively into partisan politics in all of its bloodied glory. The rest of the people in that list are political old wags, inconsequential.

Young ke? Bros the average age there is 50 years. If that's young then I'm still a toddler

I think Amachi or okorocha .they are da most qualified once to be da nest president of Nigeria because they are sent .they don't like money.as Amachi said that da river state people knows dat he don't like money.

I can't just believe on how these youth reason shame @op
