No permanent enemies but permanent interest in politics! Good moves anyways!

Can you now see how these politicians are using their foolish supporters heads to play draft? SMH

Yet some iyanmiri died because of Ekiti 'erection'

SW politics, the more you look the less (er) you see.

The list is overly bloated, reeks of mediocrity.

Story...as if you don't know that this is all political. How can you appoint a man whom you have described as corrupt, an enemy of the state and all sorts into a committee such as this? Is he now so trustworthy or all the insults were simply political? All of a sudden he's honest enough to work for the government abi? Make dem dey deceive una there

No...way to loot back taken fund

Same man APC propaganda machine always paint as corrupt?

OK

That's nice.
We must not play politics with the welfare of the masses because their welfare/social well being is nonnegotiable.
#StaySafe.

Zombies go wail tire today, so tey.. them go quench

Seriously, his s the only way Nigeria can move forward!!!

As long as they have the interest of the state at heart get them on board!!!

People have died, thugs and supporters are slaughtered, properties are destroyed by violence, bloodshed has flow, murder cases are swept under carpet, souls are bought and sold, families are shattered, human parts are sacrificed and eaten, homes are broken, friendships are separated, connections are disconnected, discord as sowed amongst the masses, masses are divided with strife, hatred and internal bitterness, and economy is staggering because of these political elites with no permanent enmity which is a clear indication that the masses are the fools who don't realise they own the power "if" united.


-Now, look at them all wining and dining together through covid-19, another is private business deals, another joint business deals, another is stateman eldership, another is elite marriage, another is FG contracts as compensation, another is wedding ceremony of their sons/daughters, et al....

God, slap us with better sense in this country!
