I believe in my President.

The Chairman of a corporation is higher in any organogram than a Group managing director even though he does not participate in the day to day running of the operation, so why are we refering to this elevation as a sack for Kachukwu

Sacking the minister of state for petroleum is a fact that he as a minister of petroleum is also a failure and he should sack himself.

Pls i would like to know the secretary of the Ministry of Finance b4 I. Make my submission

OP TFY!!!
