That's what happens when we elect career politicians instead of technocrats.

If the southern politicians in the party like, let them be docile or sell their opportunity to a northerner again na dem Sabi.
It's crystal clear the northerners are always more hungry for power.

If it is not London, it is Saudi. Meetings of thieves.

cyntiaxoxo:
Nigerian politicians have made me question the existence of God several times...

Don't go and look for how to improve your life, be searching for the existence of God. Na you know your god wey lost.

God doesn't need your validation. Whether you question his existence or not, that's your problem.

Hahahaha, Government of the Caliphate for the Caliphate by the Caliphates

Nigeria is an Islamic country.

If Peter obi do this , the whole Muslim including Christian will call for his head.

YOU ALL WON'T KNOW PEACE AND YOU'LL ALL DIE MISERABLY, UNTIMELY AND PAINFULLY.


AMEN.

You sure? He's a man to watch though. Fact is the guy is heavily loaded. He was a billionaire even before his venture into politics so he has some cash to bribe his way. He's mega rich that people wonder what he is looking for in the HoR, but I guess the answer is now glaring. He owns a private jet and I heard he also owns estates in the UAE. To cap it all, he is generous to a fault. The man may just bribe his way cos I heard he has already handed a "happy Ramadan" package of $10k to both old and incoming Members.
