Op Stop lying to people. There is nothing happening at amansea/enugu, awka/onitsha roads. The one that pisses me off the most is that you people now count a mausoleum as achievement. Are you people not ashamed? Rochas can as well count the statues as achievement.
Shame on you people.

if you vote buhari then may your life be the way nigeria is under buhari.
If you don't say amen to this then you are a very wicked person that knows what is wrong but chooses to do it anyways.

Quickrent:
How old are you Today? Every single day that passes is a day that can not be recovered. Whilst it is good to wait for the perfect time to own an investment, asset or home; it is also dangerous to know that the perfect time never comes.
Your perfect time is Now.

End the long stories and take the first step of owning your own home first. A home in your name is your first guarantee to a safe and secured tomorrow. Even if you won't live there, just buy and add to your net worth. Don't be the same every year.
It takes just #85,000 to own a home today. Yes #85,000 !!!

Guess what? You can buy and rent it out to tenants while you keep waiting for a perfect tomorrow. Atleast your future is safe and secured...

6. Ariaria Market Electrification Project (The Federal Government is implementing its Energizing Economies Programme, which will bring stable and reliable electricity to all the 37,000 shops in Ariaria Market, by providing the Market with a gas-powered IPP) (ongoing)

stop claiming this private project. This has absolutely nothing to do with Buhari.
