Fcking shiiiithole


Half of the budget of the shiiithole should be


channeled to building more prisons, prison camps and mausoleums


because jailing the youths and continuous loss of lives is the only achievement


the present shiiit government can boast of.



spits.

A fine young man full of greed and deceit. Before now, he would have been intimidating his peers with the proceeds from fraudulent activities.

If you must cheat, make sure you cheat death, not people. If you must lie, then lie down to sleep, but don’t lie to people. If you need to beg, then beg God for forgiveness, don’t beg people for money. And if you must boast, boast only of God’s love for you.

The Lord will save this country from the desperation of we youths...there is no shortcut to success, all evil deeds will surely have a repercussion.

Ethics and value system is key to a sane society!

Why are young men like this wasting their precious time coin nothing let's check the facts;

Anyone who's into internet fraud cannot run any business competently. No matter how much they put into it. Their spending pattern is greatly different from business people. that's to say they can't save. anytime the system outsmarts their fraudulent act, they are left with nothing. imagine habit a family to cater for with no tangible source of income.

The best is to hustle legally to lay a foundation. Even if you don't get to drive the best cars now,if your foundation is right, someday your seeds would rule the earth.

Is this not hoodbillionia

Take your boring rhetoric to the ones looting the revenue of this nation or you shove it directly up your ass.

You will work hard but locusts will eat them up and canker worm will invade thy income. Thy labor shall be in vain and your sweat shall be very salty. Then I will be glad to shove it up my ass. How about that?

The curse is yours not mine, you've written down with the indelible ink what exactly your desire in life. It's your choice. It's the product and fruit of your heart.

See to it yourself.

If the youths where empowered,such nonsense would have end, anyone caught should face the right and proper justice,for a lesson to others.
