It is so sad that the era of political desperation has revived after been successfully buried by the last administration. In this case even security and force men doesn't care about there selves but there determination is to work for some selfish politicians instead of protecting the citizens. Last administration, opposition won in Edo and Osun elections conducted under GEJ peacefully but this time the party at the centre wants to have it all not even minding the life of the citizens they govern. God will save us from this wicked apostles of change.
