Hbd to her

Happy birthday ma'am. You did your path to save our dear dying Nigeria but your path wasn't good enough.

Happy birthday my sugar mommy

Fine mama, HBD mummy

And you say youths are the leaders of tomorrow. When 74yrs is still occupying a post.a lady that suppose to be chilling with her great grand children at home.
In Africa youths are only readers of tomorrow and not leaders

Happy 74th Ms Ita-Giwa

Mama Bakassi, she's aged gracefully. Looking this hot at 74 is not a joke.

This woman is one of the strongest and most rugged women in Nigerian history. Some of you alpha males cannot chook hand in what she was known to chook hand in . It's surprising she kept Dele's name after he left her. 10 months of marriage must have been disgraceful in those days.

The shameless individuals above me wishing a very corrupt person a happy birthday. Shame on you. I can see their faces up her ass ready to wipe it clean with hypocrisy.

You forget your mother's birthdays but come here to wish someone that doesn't even know your cousin a nappy birthday.

But you are a frustrated soul. What does a child of 16 know about politics that you should be here commenting? Go and read your books please. Face your exams first.

Happy birthday Sugar mama!

It's true. Money can make you look younger than your age!
