Badt mouth

For how long shall we continue to toll the line of acquiesce in this country, giving in to violent and backward people for peace to reign.

Lols I can't believe a judge or whatever is handling ds crappy case....Patiently waiting for the judgment.

Era of military regime in a camouflage of democracy, I could recall when a white bearded man called the wife of the president Shepopotamus, people were laughing and it all went viral, I could recall when one almanjiri named a pet Jonathan, he was not arrested. But why is it that some parts of Nigeria worship Northern... there's no democracy in this country again.... so people are afraid of hausas not to cause violent for naming a pet Buhari.



OK I name my fowl Buhari and a lamb Aisha Buhari.


Thunder fire Daura soldiers that are working for that kunu dumb ass called Buhari.


Mod I don't care about ur ban cause I know that NL mods are bias just like kunu almanjiri spit on buhari's head...

I think most yorubas must have wake up from slumber and know the difference between democracy and military regime being practised by so called Buhari demon

Patiently waiting for the result of this case.

Our police force have gone to the dogs,

Have our judiciary also gone?

His lawyer has a thousand and one ways to win this case.

Especially when they've eaten the dog

How is it a crime to name his property?
