Renovating cemetery is now constituency project now...
Another millions vanished into the drain.

Let the living enjoy the dividend of democracy first.

His constituency people are not complaining, wetin be my own wahala?.

How did we end up with people who value the dead over the living? This is a clear sign of backwardness, both in mindset and reasoning. Renovating cemeteries while neglecting the pressing issues of the living just highlights the warped priorities.

I think he did well, you would be amaze some people dump refuse close to grave sides and some cemeterys are not even maintain at all.

sorepco:
He did well. It's not a crime to honour the dead.
We should also note that he honoured the dead by providing Keke and other sundry items!

bixton:
....

Good thinking....

While it's not said how much was expended for the renovation of the 80 cemeteries, it would be nice to know what things has he done to alleviate the welfare of those still alive ?

Babangidapikin:
Those living will still die ..I think if Cemetery were Tourist centers most of our Politicians would go there and see that life is all vanity , may be they will have a rethink and realized a good name is better. But if it is overgrown with grasses , they will not go and keep consoling themselves.
