"We keep electing people who only know how to grab power but don’t know what to do with it.”... This el rufia if you hear him speak you will think he was a saint. And not part of the problems of this country. He and Amechi have the same approach of doing the opposite of what they preach! 151 Likes 10 Shares |

Elrufai sef dey talk .. lol.  If only he had scaled through the senate screening he would have been singing Tinubu's praises to high heavens today. These politicians only care about themselves, just because you failed in your bid to become minister you want us to follow you to where we no know. How would have your ministerial position favour us? 80 Likes 8 Shares |

Same El Rufai that was prepared to disobey the currency change directive of Buhari, in order to support Tinubu, is now talking about voting the worst. Bloody hypocrite. If Tinubu throws him one juicy appointment tomorrow, you'll see him singing a different tone 32 Likes 4 Shares |

According to Sanusi: “Do we actually love the people or do we just love ruling over them? What are our priorities. We make overheads and underpasses for ourselves in the cities while there in the rural areas cannot reach hospitals. We are in crisis, how do we get out should be our focus.” “Do we actually love the people?" No. You hate the people “or do we just love ruling over them?" Yes. You are all rulers not leaders “What are our priorities. To steal and to steal and to steal until you die 18 Likes 3 Shares |

El-rufai sef dey talk. The greatest hypocrite of them all. I can never take these men serious. These men went up all in arms against GEJ just so they could grab power. Now they are casting blames because they have been schemed out of the power equation by the same men they once were in collusion. Now that Amaechi is politically useless he wants to form alliance with a bitter el-rufai. These men cannot win a local government election today. Just that Nigerians have short memory. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

You are a lone voice among the elites. The struggle almost caused you, your throne. However, you are still part of the problem: all of you putting religion above service to humanity you belong to a cursed generation of life wasters. Over a hundred Islamic organizations came out to fight for Muslim - Muslim ticket . They were even saying they coming together was not for economic stability or any benefits to humanity but Islam. What has any religion benefit humanity let alone Islam? Nigeria is moving towards hell if insurgency should prevail in Nigeria. Afghanistan would be a joke. Your Muslim north is the most backward in the nation. Burkina Faso, the emerging African model country has put religion where it belongs. Life and meaningful living thrives by the hard work not religious bigotry. Sir, educate your talakawas and peace will return to Nigeria, we can now ask for prosperity. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

Wayo Sanusi. What did you do when you were CBN Governor?. You even lied of Missing $20Billion dollars. Setup AMCON to help his Friends. Honestly, why do we keep giving people like Sanusi mic to talk?. treesun: 7 Likes 1 Share |

He is saying the truth, many of our leaders have never spent 1 kobo of their personal money for anything in their lives, everything has always been state-sponsored. So they can never understand what poverty means. Even the one the Emir is talking about is not personal poverty o, he’s just stating what he’s seeing around (poverty in his locality) 7 Likes 2 Shares |
