You sure this ^^^ make sense to you?

Congratulations to Rochas Okorocha and all the victorious APC candidates. This victory had put to rest the fraudulent claims by wailers that APC cannot win election in the south east. The party should take the next step by ensuring that Chief Benjamin Uwajumogu quickly succeeds Ike Ekweremadu as deputy senate president.

Oh yes, it made sense to the Sensible mind

Lalasticlala front page oh.... Congrats to all good people of Okigwe zone and Imo State in general that put a lie to the false claims and wicked propaganda that APC is despised in the south east.

All I'm looking forward to is the drama that will ensue in the Senate now that there is a senator of south East blood.

This is a tip of the iceberg....By the time we are done with them In Edo State...they will quickly recognize Sheriff as the authentic Chaiman of their dead party....Ndi ara


[b]This Is a party whose manifesto is lying, preaching hatred among ethnic groups, seting one religion against another, looting, supporting and sponsoring criminals, Providing logistics for terrorist groups like IPoB and Avengers..[/b]Yet they expect Nigerians to vote them...

PDP is terrorist group and must be wiped off In Nigeria..

Ok

And the fat one gets to the senate...
