Just to save face and make it look like they were going to Portugal in the first place. Traore with iron cast balls showed weak Tinubu what a president is capable of doing.

This plane is old and it cannot travel straight, that's why it was stopping at interval.

Even if Obi will never be president, at least he is made for life. Are you sure of where your next meal will come from?

Many like you do not mean well for your country.

I cannot imagine what you seek to gain?

You lamented that they went to Ghana instead of Portugal after release from Burkina Faso, as if a plane that developed a fault that resulted in an emergency landing can continue on the journey without maintenance repairs in a friendly country?

Now that they have proceeded to their actual destination in Portugal, you are still lamenting as though there is some gain for you in all of this?

If the so called president is up and doing, We Nigerians irrespective of tribe or religion will support him wholeheartedly. But he is a monumental failure and the worst calamity to have ever happened to Nigeria.

Did I mention the President?

So you must tear down anything that represents Nigeria because you do not agree with the President?

I know you actually wished they were still held in Burkina Faso, just so you can have a reason to be happy about your opposition to the government in power.

Some people have actually developed so much hate for Nigeria that any good news about the country makes them restless yet they want to make it as though they are just against the politicians.

When it's a bad news, no one ask for evidence in photos or anything..but if it's a good news, they'd find reasons why it will be unlikely so.

You’d have to be very foolish to think they just made up an aircraft maintenance schedule within a few days. The liberalization of the internet is what gives nitwits like you the chance to post this kind of nonsense online. Apoda.
