Pagers

As I said, those phones were very expensive and only the rich could afford them. Therefore, pagers were introduced into Nigeria. Quite often an executive would have a mobile phone and his personal assistant would have a pager.

There is no way Peter Obi becomes President and insecurity doesn’t end in one week.

No way.

You need someone that cares and stubborn enough to clean the country up regardless of whose ox is gored. (some people in high places are part of the insecurity)

And that’s why PO reminds me of me and why I’m 100% sold to the movement. You may not like me or my methods but it will be done!
