Congratulations. Better days ahead

When it's good news, they either keep quiet or they say it's another Lie Mohammed.

But...

When it's bad news, they will start rejoicing and they will never say it's another Lie Mohammed.

How can some people hate themselves this much? How?

Good

Barawo bubu and his 40 thieves cabal of the All Poverty Congress, APC have always been about bad luck.

A sound indicator that economy recovery is on track and strong. With the continuous growth in Agriculture and Manufacturing we can have a sound and balanced economy where fluctuations in oil prices doesn't set our economy into teeter-totter situation.

This government is working. I'm hoping for a better 2018.
