the incompetence of this administration continues to exceed all known parameters of rationality.


the worst cases of the Lassa fever outbreak has occured under the incompetence of PMB.

just last year, Nigeria had the worst outbreak in the history of the disease, PMB through his incompetence, has allowed this year's outbreak to exceed that of last year.


Nigerians do not yet understand the curse that is PMB & the woe that his 2nd term will bring.


while some continue to be decieved with crumbs & sell their souls for peanuts, the devastation being wroght on the nation's critical facilities will soon show that the crumbs are insufficient to cater to the disaster that is PMB...

I bet you PMB is not aware of this outbreak of Lassa Fever.


When he gets hint of it, it will be a national epidemic. And all he will do is to blame PDP as usual.
