They went ahead to buy the nomination form and they returned back to the office. Ngige and Malami are examples.

Whether it is or will be complied with is another issue..we have till March 31st to see how that pans out...No carry us enter bush

Does tinubu look like gej or buhari to yiu,does tinubu strike you as someone who stands aloof or play to the gallery.......all these are measured and calculated steps to ensure there wouldn't be any rancor or distractions for his govt going into 27.....anyone that falls into that category would definitely need to that order......trust tinubu on that.
