athaboi:

Joseph08:
Jobs are only available in Nigeria when bad things happen.

Trumann:


Ikuku is warming up to be the next Governor of Abia and people like you are busy shouting Nice development.
You guys are a very interesting specie of animals.

gasparpisciotta:
Have they carried out any post mortem examination to ascertain the cause of death?

Has any further investigation been carried out to determine who could be behind the incident?

Unfortunately Nigeria is not a sane society.

Penguin2:
True to rumours, Chinedum Orji has begun his 2023 gubernatorial campaign in earnest and trust Abia people to vote for another disaster.

Meanwhile, why don’t I trust that man’s wife? She seems to me like she poisoned that suya and deliberately murdered those innocent children maybe due to some disagreement. Women can behave so irascibly when angered.

Now she’s looking disappointed that her action is bringing the man more blessings than what she intended.

I might be wrong though; but I hardly am.
