Just imagine

The Destroyer of Economy, Head of Hunger and Leader of insecurity is flexing in China presently to care about anything.
You have so many home grown challenges facing your and you decided to travel for a state visit unfortunately, Baba has 7 years more to finish Nigeria

Not in southeast, less views.

See how they are avoiding the thread. The only important life is that of an lgbo man, others can die

They are more worried about SE and color of shoe IPOB wear

Unfortunately their indigenes are on nairaland scouting for negative bedroom news to share about Anambra and the East.
