Speechless

Igbos, what yah say

They will always want to impose a successor only for them and the same successor to start quarreling few months after handover.

No successor stays loyal for long.... You better cover your azz... Else, you'll be sleeping with EFCC

Just look at what abia state is suffering today because of this nonsense godfatherism. Wike should make sure the next person coming after him is smart and not necessarily a bigot.

bcomputer101:



Abia state is not just useless to Abians alone.
He's even useless to himself.
Calling him a useless governor is even a slap to the word USELESS. The man is a goat.

Why are you insulting goat. Goat is meaningful to its purpose.

The Emperor has spoken.

A quarrel between a sitting governor and his successor always bring some form of good to the people.

What good have the quarrel between Oshiomole and Obaseki bring to the people of Edo State?
