commander on "thief". Where is our yam? Until he returns our yam then i can take him seriously.

Ole, olosha.. Zombies, how long will you celebrate em mofos? How long!

Congrats Sir! God bless U!

My assumption.

Note. before I comment let me make it clear that I'm strong supporter of APC.

However I hate injustice.

My assumption.

The president might be afraid of Buratai coup. The reason the president refuse to indict Buratai. I believe there might be a bargain to drop further probe of serving military, then the president will be assured of coup free administration.

This is assumption.

Wetin dis person dey yarn self?

Mehn this man deserves celebrating as an accomplished officer
......why then do we think this man cannot get a meager $2.5million to buy Dubai properties from the allowances, impress and other entitlements from the offices of all the high profile positions he has occupied?

I think this man's only crime is because he was in the Army if he was a banker, corporate organization leadership position, oil industry, I don't think people will accuse him of looting by mere intuition and suspicion since he hasn't yet been indicted.....

However, he should be sanctioned and dealt with if found guilty of stealing our collective wealth



How come our own peoples General PMB no get any of these awards like PSC,FSS,DSS,MSS,GSS abi the awards no dey exist during his own time?

Anyway whatever sha SAI BUHARI

Good point though...buh my lips kpichikòm!
