The didn't visit the victims that were massacred by fulani herdsmen in Benue and plateau because their deaths meant nothing to them. But here they're going to the funeral of someone in far away Italy that doesn't even know about their existence when he was alive, do you know how much of taxpayers money they will spend on the trip? Las Las everybody go get sense.

If Obi hadn't gone, they would not have even known pope died talk more of visiting the Vatican. These people sef grin

. We didn't even hear the senate reaching out to the people of Benue or plateau. Not even a word of commiseration, not even 1 minute silence, in the chambers, but they want to go and commiserate with a pope that never knew them when he was alive. They want pope to recognise them from Nigeria when him don die? Who do Nigeria like this?
These guys are clueless o.
But I know it's political.
Commiserate with the catholics on the death of pope and have real bishops( not those fake ones) endorsing the tinubu in 2027. That is their thinking 🤣🤣
