You didn't read the names abeg no dey behave like you didn't attend primary school

APC and nepotism are like Siamese twins. The next president should even close down such useless bodies, they're just another avenue for wasting money and increasing cost of governance, what's the role of the ministry of national orientation versus this one?

APC should just do and go. We need a visionary leader who can reposition the economy of the country.

Few politicians are benefitting from the system while the masses are suffering.

A so called National youth team with lopsided representation
