My respect for Fayemi just increased for this singular act of condolence, other Governors should emulate him. The South East Governors na big mumu

No sir, she doesn't need to protest before she gets her husband's benefits.This is the NAF we have standards...

may the beautiful souls of the deceased rest in peace

Her husband's benefits would only give little consolation. May God console her in all ways.

floss:
Hmm... which one is "was killed"

It doesn't really mean that,,, but the expression usually sounds somehow though

Nigerian govt should always learn how to make stimulus package ready for dependants of the deceased and stop this culture of visiting the bereaved to score cheap political points. Bet me the Duty Tour Allowance for this visitation can train all the deceased children to university level.
