For more jokes text POVERTY to 5042

I pray this government doesn't end like Buhari administration

"To Be"

Slogans, always. How about just doing it?, if you can.

Thunder pls where are you?💥

50 million is an understatement, with what Tinubu is doing, I think the correct number is about 100 billion.

APC said Buhari lifted 100, million Nigeria from poverty now Tinubu is going to lift 50, million from poverty to APC supporters and members no more poverty but more than 160, million Nigerians are still in poverty after all these lifting

Buhari said 100m .. and Tinubu is saying 50m.. so after 16 years of APC, 150m Nigerians would have been enrolled into abject poverty?

These people are mocking us with sacarsm.
Everybody please prepare for more hardship.
We all know how this ended the other time.

Easier said than done

You can't even lift the economy smh

The same beta edu who cornerside 15billion naira meant for the elderly.
Again this is the exact lies and propaganda we have been hearing during the time of Buhari. Nonsense
