You should realise that by their posts we know them. You are one of the enemies of this nation. In the history of Nigeria, no man from all other tribes has made impacts like what AWO made in Nigeria. So keep your mouth shut if you don't know what to say/type here. It is time for IJEBU to RULE Nigeria

We have heard how Abacha gave yoloba monarchs money to hang Abiola, now we are hearing that yolobagod was once a blindman very soon the rat poison Awolowo took will be made public.

Lie can travel billions of miles but it will only take truth a second to locate it.
