OK.

I hereby meet you sir.

Brilliant record! Well deserved! When you see people who know their onions, they're always unmistakable.

He does not deserve the position.

The Nigerian Airforc! I hope your coming will stop the the airmen from accidental discharge

Okay

Who is this again

Question of the year

Judging by the time interval between when we have been asking for this replacement and the time Buhari is doing it.Calculate the velocity of Buhari's intellectual processing

Obviously these ones may do better looking at their faces that are still young unlike those old and tired men who refused to retire and Buhari also refused to send them packing.

I wish him success ijn

In a cursed country, even if angels are to head security positions, there won't be positive results at the end.

Hope you guys will serve us well

They are relatively younger than the old men that were there before
