I see fayose comment. Him act gentle

That PostMaster guy sha!

In 2015, GEJ did something to woo some Nigerians towards the election period by giving presidential pardons to Diya and Alamieyeseigha. However, virtually all Nigerians ignored that because it never meant anything to them. Now PMB is doing something similar but more acceptable to majority of Nigerians, even among the oppositions. Who said Baba is not coming back?
