Well deserved appointments


I love Omo-agege especially his boldness in ending saraki's autocratic rule in the senate. His bold move opened the eyes of most senators as saraki was sharing suspension to any senator who antagonised his leadership. His future is so bright in National politics.


God bless all South-South people.

Wasted Country. This man’s thugs shot and killed people in broad daylight some years ago in Main market Warri. A pregnant woman who is an inlaw to me was among the innocent victims that lost their life that fateful day. He sent his thugs to snatche the MACE which is a statutory and sacred symbol in the house of Senates, that gesture alone should have ended his political career. Here he is a deputy senate president. I give up on Nigeria

Baseless accusations. Provide evidence or keep shut forever. Stupid Igbos/nyamiri

Good
