Noise of a sinking person.

Were date of births not included on the PVC issued to all eligible voters?

Why this cry over under-age. Is age determined by size of the body?

But for ensuring that the election is conducted peaceful, its a duty we all owe to our Nation and progress of democracy in Africa.

Aside this, Mr. Chief Press Secretary, you may please park well.

#Vote 4 Positive Change throughout
#Vote 4 Prosperous Nigeria
#Vote APC
#A Vote 4 APC is a Vote 4 GMB/PYO
