Interesting to know. But of all the companies and establishments you mentioned above, which is still alive today? The last time I checked , they're all in a moribund state. No wonder Nigeria is still at this state today because he's the head of cabal in aso vila. The earlier he lives there, the better for Nigeria. Happy birthday to him. 1 Like |
