Best Minister of Information ever in this Country.

I use to think Jerry Gana was the best, until this guy showed up. This is an intellectual man, that knows the workings of the Media both in and out.I Salute you, you are a great man.

Frank Nweke Jnr was the best minister of information Nigeria ever had.

The gibberish of Lai Mohammed have no place in today's world. Adages are myths.

To set the record straight.

The Proverb he brandished was edited to suit himself.

....... The correct version goes this way........

'Anyone that will burry his elder brother naked, tell him to go with his younger brother'

The meaning of his proverb is deeper than most people think.
indeed. identity theft

isaiah 14 vs 20 Thou shalt not be joined with them in burial, because thou hast destroyed thy land, and slain thy people: the seed of evildoers shall never be renowned.

rev 11 vs 9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.

rev 11 vs 8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.

Seems to be the most acceptable and widely spoken language in Nigeria though.

Meanwhile I've noticed that an average Yoruba man hardly feel inferior speaking his language anytime and anywhere cool

maybe cos he's tries to conceal his English language proficiency
