I hate this man not for personal reason but because of the hostage he and his family have been holding kwara for years.. I hate him more when nairalanders spread blatant lie about him and his father... His father was a mere senator in the second Republic and was receiving less than 750 (after tax) his dad was a medical doctor turned politician who failed as an independent candidate into the house of rep bt won to the Senate some years later.... Read a about him and not mistake OLUSOLA Saraki for BUKOLA Saraki. |
