Shut up. I should be clapping for him after he deprived those poor old people of their miserable pension which they worked hard for all their lives, for over 13yrs for no just cause? Are you aware some of them may have died already from easily treatable illnesses but no money to get good treatment?

Just imagine since 2011. The money is now useless.

See how stupid you are?

You said he's been governor for the past 8 years & you also said the pension was due 13 years ago which are both correct.


The question your statements have raised is; Why didn't Oshimhole, the governor in 2011, pay those pensioners?

Can you answer this question, zombinus?
