In Nigeria our own former presidents will only gather to plan how they'll continue looting the treasury. Useless and wicked people. 416 Likes 31 Shares |

Pop star Lady Gaga was the surprise guest at the event. 'Sometimes life gives us a million reasons to give up, but we stick around,' Gaga said before beginning her two-song set. During the hurricane season, Lady Gaga contributed $1 million to relief efforts. She also plans to help victims suffering mental trauma after the hurricanes through her Born This Way Foundation 33 Likes 1 Share

tk4rd:Smh! So, you judge her based on how she dresses? Where were all the decently dressed Nigerians when Benue was flooded? Keep judging people based on how they dress and you'll keep getting disappointed. You'd be surprised how many seemingly 'indecent' people have contributed to the good of others. 154 Likes 18 Shares |

The clown, the comedian, the childish president, Trump was not there. America surprised the world when they elected a black man as president, America would have surprised the world by electing a woman as president but America chose to surprise the world by electing a dolt as president. 24 Likes |

This show's the hatred for Trump. Due to Trumps divisiveness (think Buhari) even Pres. Bush (together with Pres Obama) shaded him just two days ago. If Bush (Killer of Middle Eastern Children) can shade Trump and get a lot of praises from majority of the press and other Americans then Trump is really bad. He'd just turn America upside down. Just like our very own Pres. Lady Gaga I sight you. Blond Ambition. I sight a Father and Son. Jimmy Carter always look the same .. 7 Likes |
