Give us counter facts and quit the insults.

Insult is a symptom of mental weakness.

You can make your point without spewing invectives at yourself.

I insist, Wike is governing Rivers State like an LGA!!!

Then take him to court, since you insist, APC rats

When you guys fallout from favour, you come online to write rubbish looking for facts, you mean to tell me you're more exposed and intelligent than the Vice President that named him Mr. project, Osibanjo went to other states too would you ask yourself why he never called other Governors same.

Go and ask your pay masters for facts

blackbriar:
I WILL GIVE YOU 5K,IF YOU CAN ENETER OMOKU IN BROAD DAY LIGHT AND COME BACK UNSCATHED.

For your information I work in Omoku and people still live and do biz there, so don't go around peddling rumours that it is a war zones.

Lifestone:
But you've got an opportunity to enlighten me and others like me who may not be in River State soon.

Since you don't intend to come to Rivers State soon, then forget about issues concerning Rivers State, what is currently happening in ikorodu by the badoo boys is worse than what happens In Rivers State but nobody seems to talk much about it because an APC state, nobody has called for a state of emergency in Lagos, nobody has called for Ambode head on a spike, you can see all this write up are all political

frankmoney:
wike has done nothing , all he does is patch a few potholes and come out and start acting like he constructed something magnificent a typical example is woji road

You mean to tell me he patched Woji road? Are you even in port Harcourt? What about Elelewon that is being worked by Julius Never as we speak is also patching? Obiri Ikwere road to Airport that was abandoned by Ameachi that he completed was also patching, Igbo eteche road was also patching, my friend wake up

Lifestone:
I am not from River State and not interested in the local politics, what I support is for citizens to hold their leaders accountable. He has listed what he claimed to be the failures of Wike, if you think he is lying, disprove him point for point and list the achievements of Wike, shikena rather than been abusive and insulting.

You need to come to Rivers State to see for yourself or else you stop commenting on issues you know nothing about, if not for your one track mind why would believe him and be looking for someone to disprove him

Lifestone:
I thought somebody is going to disprove what the OP said rather than insulting him.

It is not all about insult, we know what this article is all about, Wike is doing the best he can, how many of Wike aids doing see buying or spending money like it was during Ameachi's time, none.

They should allow Wike to work than distract him, when last did you hear the voices of APC chairman in the state or it's spokesman, they all have nothing to say because Wike has overwhelmed them.

So guy just leave Wike alone and focus on your destiny.

A U.S returneee whose name was not given, was allegedly assaulted by some SARS operative in Port Harcourt, Rivers State, for being in possession of 3 mobile phones. The U.S returnee's story was sent in by his brother, who alleged that he was rushed down to the hospital and now stable.

Lalasticlala

My friend complete the story, this can't be true, a lot of people carry more than three phones in port Harcourt everyday nothing like that has happened, what did your brother do please stop misinforming the public.

I see this guys everyday, it's either your brother was rude to them when. Asked some questions, it not about the phone , tell us the true story.

Frankyboy1:
In saner climes Jonathan would hide in face in shame, at least for moral grounds, a man whose administration masterminded the brazen looting of our national resources to the dismay of the international community, a man who openly acknowledged he couldn't control his wife's feud with a sitting Governor! Unfortunately this is a country where we 've never gotten it right, cos from Jonathan's precedence as Governor and family values,it was obvious he was not fit for that seat, nd I wonder why all the recent sentiments,.you were loved by all in 2011, by 2015 most people turned their backs on ur administration, it could not 've been from religious or tribal inclinations, for those sentiments never change! Moreover this is coming from a true Niger deltan,.but I must speak the truth

Is it GEJ that looted the money? You think if they could trace any money to him they will not expose him, guy focus, GEJ has done the little he can and has left, are we not Experiencing great fraud and looting in this Govt or are you sleeping, the grass cutting contract that was masterminded by the SGF, with people like you in this country we can never grow, because you don't want the right thing to be done.
I am not against going after looters, but it should be everyone that has looted, not GEJ and his family and friends. When the likes of Amaechi, Tinubu, Fashola, Atiku, OBJ and the rest are still there enjoying there loots.

TheTrueSeeker:
PMB should Strike a Power Deal with PYO.

Both would resign but PMB would go first

Then

picks a VP for PYO

PYO would also resign for PMB's chosen Vice to take over the reins of leadership while he (PMB) runs the Presidency by proxy.

PYO then gets his slot to also pick his successor and runs things by proxy


No victor, no vanquish

Win-Win Calculation

What did you smoke ?

freelancer10:
More revelations have emerged on the alleged conspiracy of the US in the electoral defeat of former President Goodluck Jonathan in 2015.
Jonathan had claimed that former American President Barack Obama, was responsible for his loss.
Jonathan had said, “President Barack Obama and his officials made it very clear to me by their actions that they wanted a change of government in Nigeria and we’re ready to do anything to achieve that purpose. They even brought some naval ships into the Gulf of Guinea in the days preceding the election.”
Meanwhile, the US has since denied the allegation, insisting that Jonathan lost the election because Nigerians wanted him out.
In an advance copy of ‘Against the Run of Play’, a book written by Segun Adeniyi, Babangida Aliyu, former Niger state governor and ex-chairman of the Northern Governors Forum, gave a hint of possible US involvement in the electoral defeat of Jonathan.
He said the Obama administration invited 12 northern governors to the US to ascertain their level of commitment to removing Jonathan.
Aliyu said, although he had no proof of this, but expressed the belief that the reason for their invitation to the US was deeper than discussing the Boko Haram insurgency in Nigeria.
“I have no proof of course, but I think the idea was to ascertain what the disposition of the north would be to the idea of another term for President Jonathan.
“That was my reading of the situation. I believe it was all about the 2015 election for which the Americans had resolved not to support Jonathan. They just wanted to size us up for the level of commitment to regime change,” Aliyu said.
Aliyu said in one of the sessions, Murtala Nyako, former Adamawa state governor, accused Jonathan of sponsoring Boko Haram with the intent of destroying the north.
He added that Nyako’s accusation signalled to the Americans that the north was not in support Jonathan’s re-election bid.
“If Jonathan had been clever enough to say he would not run and had stuck with the PDP zoning formula by supporting a young northern candidate, I am most certain Buhari would have shelved his ambition to contest in 2015, knowing there was no way he would win,” he said.
The book, which details how Jonathan lost the 2015 election, will be launched on Friday.

Simple Ways to Answer Tricky Interview Questions

A couple of years ago, my idea of a job interview was being in front of a hard, unsmiling panel and having extremely difficult questions thrown at me, like rocks. However, when I got invited for my first interview, I realized this is not always the case.

A job interview does not have to be tense. In fact, you may find yourself with a very friendly panel, who will go all out to make you feel as comfortable as possible.

However, irrespective of the size and manner of the panel you are faced with, what is required of you is confidence and of course, the appropriate answers to every question you are asked. This part is what’s tricky.


So, in this post, we’d be looking at the simple ways to answer 5 tricky questions you are likely to get in your job interview.

1. Tell Me About Yourself.

This question seems very straightforward. Usually, the first you’d be asked in an interview. However, it is tricky because though it sounds like an invitation to tell your life story, it is not.

When asked the ‘tell me about yourself’ question, what the hiring panel is actually asking you is to tell them about yourself, as it pertains to the position you are applying for.

With this in mind, you should not begin to share generic information about yourself, your family or how many siblings you have. Rather, you could start with your name, academic qualifications, present skills and strengths, previous experiences as well as future professional aspirations. You should also feel free to ask the interviewers for clarifications, just in case there are specific information they’d like to hear about.

Take this for instance:

Question: Tell us a bit about yourself.

Wrong Answer: Hmmn, where do I start? My name is Oluwaseun. I was born in the late 80s and currently married with 6 kids. …

Right Answer: My name is Oluwaseun, a second-year master’s student of marketing communications at the Lagos Business School. Prior to pursing this degree, I worked with the marketing and communications department at Shell, where I developed and honed my skills in copywriting and digital marketing. This experience really piqued my interest in this field and I look forward to an opportunity to learn more and contribute to your marketing communications department…

2. Where do you See Yourself in Five Years?

This question is tricky because you might be tempted to say everything you see yourself doing in five years and completely miss the mark. Like the first question, your answer should be much more professional than personal. What the hiring panel really wants to know is if you are going to stick with them and if you are worth the investment of training.

To answer this question, you could tell them how you think the job will provide you with so many opportunities, such that in 5 years, you'd be in a particular position within the organisation. You can also explain what value you hope to have added as well as how you could also have improved yourself professionally in that time.

Take this for instance:

Question: Where do you see yourself in five years?

Wrong Answer: In five years, I’d be a millionaire, enjoying life. I’d have built a house and would probably be the CEO of this company …

Right answer: In five years, I hope to have acquired a lot of knowledge in marketing communications, as well as contributed immensely to the growth of my department and the company. I’m also looking forward to eventually taking on additional managerial responsibilities and possibly taking the lead on some projects…

3. What is your Greatest Weakness?

Like the first two, this question is also very tricky because you might be tempted to give personal, instead of professional answers.

When asked this question, what interviewers actually want to know is if or not you are consciously aware of the areas you could improve on. Your weakness does not have to be present. It could be something that you’ve already worked on, but say it anyway. I’d advise that you think about this question before the interview, so you don’t give a generic answer or be at a loss of what to say. No one would believe you if you say you have no weakness.

To answer this question, start by mentioning the weakness, how it poses a problem to your work or career and how you’ve started to work on improving.

Take this for instance:

Question: What is your greatest weakness?

Wrong answer: Hmmn, my greatest weakness is to sleep. I could sleep all day…

Right answer: I used to have to have a problem with time management and this affected me every time I tried to multitask. Currently, I’m working on this through the use of certain time management tools.

4. What did you Hate About your Last Job?

This question is tricky because you might be tempted to spill all the beans about why you hated your boss, the work, the timing - all of it! This is wrong, because as Kachi Tila-Adesina puts it, the interviewers might already begin to picture you sitting elsewhere and literally dragging their name and their organisation in the mud as well.’

To answer this question, start by saying how beneficial the job was, before going to state one or two things you could have changed, if given the opportunity. Also, explain why you think the role you are now applying for is a better fit.

If you did not hate your last job, you can say so. This response can also be adapted, just in case you are asked why you are leaving your current position.

Take this for instance:

Question: What did you hate about your last job?

Wrong answer: Ooh, my boss! I hated my boss! …

Right answer: Well, my last job did offer me an opportunity to learn and grow in my career. However, I think it would have been better if such opportunity was granted in a less hostile work environment... I believe that working here would not just give me a better opportunity to grow, but also a conducive and comfortable work environment, which is very important to growth.

5. How much are you looking to be paid?

Now, this question is tricky because well, money is involved and while you don’t want to short-change yourself, you wouldn’t want to price yourself out of range either!

I know money is very important but when asked this question, don’t jump at the opportunity to scream ‘one million naira!’ Instead, you should have done your research on the organisation you are coming into and how much is standard for the role you are applying for.

If you are aware of how much the company really wants to hire you, say because of your expertise and skills, you can negotiate your salary right there. However, if this is not the case, you’ll need to fall back on the information you’ve gathered on what the going rate is, for the position you’re being interviewed for. In the worst case scenarios, you can request to know more about the role’s responsibilities and benefits packages. You should also mention how you are willing to discuss further when the time is right.

Take this for instance:

Question: How much are you looking to be paid?

Wrong answer: I can’t take anything less than ‘One million naira’!

Right answer: That's a fair question. To answer it properly, I'd need to know more about the role’s responsibilities and benefits package. I am quite confident that knowing the reputation of the company, when the time comes, any offer you make will be competitive.”

There you have it, the simple ways to answer tricky questions in your next job interview. Of course, there are quite a lot more tricky questions than I’ve listed. And while researching for this post, I found a couple of materials on tricky interview questions, which I think you’ll also find helpful. I’ve labelled them material 1, material 2, material 3 and material 4, respectively.

Finally, if you have any questions concerning job search, preparing for an interview or anything career-related, do feel free to ask.

May God help us all !!!!

BlowBack:
The level and zeal at which the transplanted shills of Alausa now posting from BMC, Utako at which they are defending Amaechi and denouncing anyone who links Amaechi to the recovered loot is mind boggling.

For the past few months BMC has sort of gone cold as they seem unable to defend the indefensible Clueless Buhari administration but since Ikoyigate, the BMC have returned to their latest Alausa tactics of licking their own posts, derailing and deflecting blame from Amaechi (who happens to be the owner of the stolen funds) to attacking Wike, Fayose, FFK and any other person who points the stolen loot to Amaechi.

Do we blame them? After all, they love Amaechi but HATE Wike in Osun.

Apart from NL, every other social media on 9ja cyberspace is recoiling from this satanic incompetent Islamofascist govt. If not for the highly compromised Mods (with tacit support from the owner) we won't be seeing BMC staff open their dirty mouths to spew trash.

Seun, I hope you are enjoying your fair share from the "Social Media facilitator" funds budget by Lair Mohammed.

Which one be BMC ?

thesicilian:
EFCC has failed again, which is not surprising since they chose to make the discovery public before doing proper investigations as to who actually owns it.
Now the real owner is going to destroy any evidence connecting him/her to the money beforehand

Thanks to you, please tell them, when you throw away professionalism to the dirt, and think with your feet that is the kind of results you get.

doctokwus:
Magu is the best thing to happen to Nigeria at this time.
If not for Magu's passion,competence and zeal for the EFCC job,corruption wud av long decimated the carcass that fisherman that called himself a president left behind.
If corruption,financial and in d ballot box can be eliminated in our electoral system,more credible leaders wud soon start being produced.

Magu is never the best thing, it's just that he is fighting those that didn't confirm him, I will believe him when people like Amaechi and the rest are arrested and investigated, if not he is just dancing around trying to get Nigeriansby his side, you could see that some people in govt knew about that money before now.

Badgers14:
Shame shame shame....

GEJ the hero

Did you see anywhere in the write up that a dollar was given to GEJ, why can't you guys be patient to wait until investigation is completed and if he found wanting let the authorities deal with him.

Stop shouting his name with your ITEL phone

ahmedkoded95:
Over the past few weeks, there has been a lot of TBoss noise going around. It is either from those who think TBoss is the greatest thing that has happened to Nigeria after the oil boom, or it is from those who think she is a modern day Delilah who shouldn’t even be allowed to breathe.

Whatever you think of her, though, you cannot erase the fact that she has found her way to the finals of Big Brother Naija (#BBNaija), a competition which has equally divided opinion among the hypocrites, not-so-hypocrites and the die-hard fans.



During her stroll to the finals, I have read several ridiculous theories about how she is dating Big Brother, how the whole world hates her (I even saw a video on that! SMH), how every man she kisses on the show gets evicted and so on.

Let me put it on record here that I also do not like her personality a lot. If we were going
by personalities, Efe will get my nod – easily.

1. She is the most marketable

Yes, there are three women (duh!) in the finals and yes, there are two men (duh!). But when you are picking the most marketable #BBNaija winner, it has to be TBoss. She is the prettiest (leave hating jor) and she is the most well-spoken of all the ladies. Apart from that, she is the one that looks most like a celebrity. Ah-mean, whatawetalkingabout? She’s F**.Cking yellow!

2. She’s the only one with an obvious been-to factor

I don’t know if the others can claim to have been-to, but once you see TBoss, you see a been-to. And while this ought to fall under making her the most marketable, I have decided to allow this reason stand alone. It is that big a reason, that’s why. Been-to-ness in Nigeria is a big deal and she sure fits it.

3. She is the most controversial of the remaining five.

Who else divides opinion like she does? Who among the remaining housemates vying for the N25million has had this much conspiracy theory thrown at them?

We have heard of how all the boys she has kissed got evicted. We have heard how the duvet with which she sleeps is cursed. We have heard of how Big Brother has a crush on her and has kept her on because of that. We have heard this, we have heard that. Everywhere you turn, it is TBoss this, that girl that. If controversy sells, she will be richer than that boy, Mark.

4. That babe is the most interesting character.

Do I have to talk about how interesting she has been since the show started? Well, apart from the fact that she doesn’t dance much at house parties. You might want to say Bisola is interesting but there is a thin line that separates being interesting and being talented. Bisola is one talented woman but forget…when it comes to in-ta-res-tina, there is only one win-na.

5.TBoss has luck on her side.

A lot of it. Football fans will understand this a lot. Remember Greece in Euro 2008? Leicester City in EPL 2016? And Chelsea in that UEFA CL they won with Roberto DiMatteo as manager? Cool

https://madailygist.com/stop-the-hating-5-reasons-why-tboss-will-most-likely-win-bbnaija/

For all this write up just three likes, where is the market here, my guy focus, Efe is the one with the market at the moment, for your information the producers of his tee shirts are raking in millions and you are here with all your analysis just 3 likes but look at everyone that made comments concerning Efe are recording so much likes including my comments.

If you're my business analyst I would have fired you by now, for bringing bad business to me. Focus!!!!

Oildichotomy:
It is appaling our choice of priorities in this country. I'm not a fan of Oby but as for this she is so spot on.

This BBNaija BS is painful to say the least

She can never be and will never be on spot, because chibok girls is the greatest scam to have come out of Africa, you can fool some people sometime but you can't fool 11million people all the time, pls wake up from your sleep. There's nothing like chibok girls!!!!

Bugatie:
I shudder when I hear this Efe noise and I wonder what the hype is all about

He went haywire last night after drinking himself to stupor and his fans call it been real, I wonder if they would've said same if it was another housemate

How this Efe thing dey do una for body, make una let the boy be na, na wah shame to bad people.

Housemates have done worse in the house, heaven didn't not fall, make una focus

ogunjyde2004:
Madam is like you dnt know anything about Nigeria politics, falana was jubrin lawyer in that case u can check it here
http://www.thelinkng.com/house-seals-defiant-hon-jubrils-office/

Why didn't he mention it, anyway I still feel members should abide by their house or senate rules to bring about orderliness in the house, if everybody decides to behave like Sahara reporters, you can imagine how the senate will look like, I know some of you grow up in disorganised home so you are used to things like this, but we can't continue like this.

Facts must be verified before bringing it up

rusher14:
Are you sure you watched the show?

Did you follow the link or even bother to read the extracts?

Because if you did, you would find that Falana stood for Dino and even won the case when it came up.

You're right

What about those that where suspended before now, Jibrin was suspended for whistle blowing, I expected Falana to fight for him, instead he kept quiet, he never mentioned his case, which very recent, I believe the senate has it rule books which they follow, Nndume may not have followed due process in presenting the issues

deji15:
It is not possible to have an "assembly of looters" and round all of them up in one day. You take it one by one.
Let me ask you a question. Have you been involved in a mob action where a thief is caught in your street?
Do you say, let us leave this one thief that we have caught alone, let him go because the other thieves are still out there? Or do you say since the thieves in Sokoto are still free, then the thief that you catch trying to steal your phone in Enugu should be left alone? You deal with the one you catch and move on to the next one.

So Sahara reporters are the thief catchers now, what are the authorities with the Constitutional mandate doing, don't we have the attorney General, that have step in the matter, what about the police, what are they waiting for, my guy leave this people I am not in support of Dino whether right or wrong, Sahara reporters are becoming a public meance and their journalism stinks

deji15:
I know you will prefer to live in the dark than have dirty secrets revealed to you. Next time you fall on hard time and the system is not there to assist you, be honest enough to admit your own contribution to the failures we have in the country. Just be self conscious. That is all.

Nobody is saying we should remain in the dark, but this selective fight is even setting us backwards, why have they decided to fight Dino now?

We have a lot of them that are corrupt out there but they will go after them because they're quiet, so anybody that wants to talk against the system, you start digging into their past , is that our you fight corruption, my wake up

Well, I really don't like the stupid big brother show but this court case may not change anything.

There are some things that are simply unexplainable. Efe is one of such. Aside the stunt he pulled on stage when going in, nothing special about him. He can't sing, he can't rap (actually he should consider comedy cos rapping ain't his calling), can't dance, not out spoken etc. But somehow he resonates with Nigerians who celebrate mediocrity cos he keeps saying he is poor as if big brother house is a salvation army. Sadly, he will win

As shared by Ben......

'They've started dropping bodies in Bori. One last night, this one a few minutes ago. See how they blew his brains out with a G3.Do anyone else still think there is a government in Rivers State? We all know how they got these guns.This is a direct result of the sophisticated weapons shipped into Rivers State by Goodluck Jonathan and Nyesom Wike in their desperate bid to take power by all means from a very popular governor in 2015. We've had crime in the state before, there is nowhere in the world where there is no crime, but when such crime is backed by the state and allowed to proliferate at an alarming rate, then it would take an equal and opposite measure to restore peace in that area. Does Wike have the political will to fight the criminals who brought him to power? No! He is appointing their leaders as caretaker chairmen all over the state and giving them every back-up to thrive. This is not an issue of Ogoni.It has happened in other parts of the state before, and if it has not happened in your area, then know that it is coming.This is the time to pile pressure on Nyesom Wike to take action against his boys... Whether he believe he caused it or not, it is his job to protect lives and properties. Enough is enough, all Rivers people cannot die because he wants to return to power in 2019'.


Source: http://www.trezzyhelm.com/2017/03/another-man-gunned-down-in-boririvers.html

Why are you guys so quick in mentioning names if you're called upon can you defend it with facts that Goodluck Jonathan and Wike shipped in the gun used in carrying out this dastardly act.

We should be guided on how we talk and present issues.

Handsome777:
The Senator representing Rivers South East constituency in the red chambers, Magnus Abe, has accused Rivers state governor, Nyesom Wike, of fanning the embers of hate and disunity among the people the Niger-Delta along party lines.

He made the accusation while addressing the Acting-President, Yemi Osinbajo in Port-Harcourt on Tuesday.
Abe said the government of Rivers State was not ready for peace in spite of all entreaties made by the members of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

He complained that members of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) with the backing of the government had been antagonizing members of APC in the state, but vowed that they would not succumb to blackmail and provocation.

Abe explained that members of PDP pulled down the banners which APC erected to welcome Osinbajo to the state yesterday. He also lamented the shutting-out of all members of the APC except the minister of Transport, Rotimi Amaechi, from attending the Town Hall meeting that took place at the government house yesterday.

The Senator decried the discrimination meted out to APC members in the state House of Assembly by governor Wike because of their political affiliation.

He said: “I’m sure that in the 24 hours you have spent in River state that you have come to find that there are deep fault-lines in River state. And, you have seen with your own very eyes what all the evidence in this country has been pointing to you that there is a problem here.

“Yesterday, people talked so much about unity. How we are all united, and how what was happening in government house united the position of all Rivers people. But let me say that unity is not what we do or what we say when the Acting-President of Nigeria is seated and all the television stations in the country are tuned in to what we are doing.

“Unity is what we do when the cameras are not there or the Acting-President is not there. As a senator of the federal republic of Nigeria, I did not receive an invitation to yesterday’s Town Hall meeting. It was at the airport that your own staff now tried to give us invitations. That is not an act that will promote unity and that why we did not come.

“The Rivers state House of Assembly has 32 members. Out of the 32, the six members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) are the only six people that take taxis to the Assembly all the other members drive cars that were bought by Rivers state government, and the governor tells us that it is his personal contribution to the House, and these other six people are not entitled. In an atmosphere of that nature, it is clear that there can be no unity, because it is not the words that are said in the front of television cameras that will bring unity, it is the actions that we take when nobody is watching.

“We have gone through a lot as Rivers people because of the situation that has been ousted on us in this state. And, we want to use this opportunity to call on the federal government to make a very clear and decisive to try bring peace to River state.

“In this Niger-Delta, there is an attempt to mark those of us who are member of the APC as if we have committed treason by joining this party but this party is registered under the laws of Nigeria, and we have a constitutional right to belong to any political association of our choice.

“Yesterday we put up our banners to welcome you to the state. A prominent member of the PDP had the boldness and the effrontery to go to banners of the APC welcoming you to Rivers state to physically, pull them down. We have reported that to the Nigerian police. We believe that action must be taken so that the impunity that existed before can no longer exist under this administration.

“Those who want peace in our state should learn to respect those who have contributed to the state. The former governor of Rivers state was seated there, the present governor could not even acknowledge his predecessor in office. Is that the action of people who want unity? Is that the action of people who want peace? Is that the action of people who want Rivers state to move forward?

In his response, Acting-President Osinbajo called on the members of the APC in the state to eschew violence but pursue peace with all men stressing that political violence will disrupt the on-going plans of the federal government for the region and deprive them of meaningful development.

“As time goes on, one thing I want to say to all of us especially those of us who are strong and active members of the APC, let me say to you that peace is the most important quality we need. We are the government at the centre.

“For the first time, we are there at the centre. This is not the time to make war. No!. This is the time to make peace. So that we can ensure that we derive all of the benefits that are derivable from the centre.

“If we are violent, and we are answering violence with violence, we will end up destroying everything. War does not end. It is our duty to overcome evil with good.

“The future of APC is bright given the caliber of people we have in the APC, don’t let us spoil everything by engaging in any form of violence or confusion let us stay a steady course.

“The APC is going to achieve everything we have said we will achieve. Don’t worry. Today is opposition, tomorrow is victory,” he said.
