This is disturbing! Why should a human angle story be dominated by political consciousness?

This story is purely PR motivated and swung to earn APC some credit in that state.

Post-elecetion, I doubt if the small boy consciously realised the impact of a change in political power on his stately benefits. I presume the boy was either guided to making that political statement or it was simply a frmulated quote.

Then again, this is another clear reflection of dysfunctional social structure in Nigeria. What's the meaning of "Oshomiole's Children"? Are those funds from his personal purse or the state's? If they're from the state, then, it proper system should be established to disburse and monitor the funds irrespective of the ruling party...Governance is a continuum.

..lol and his aim was to fly to America 6hrs journey ...40k feet above see level. I wonder how he even survived atmospheric pressure @ 33k feet from Benin to Lagos, he should be bleeding before landing.

Which America is 6hrs, Lagos to Atlanta direct is 13hrs.

Bro same with me that is why me run comot for the country sharp sharp and never to return cos no hope. Guy honestly the looters ve made life useless for its citizens. Nigerian citizenship is worthless. Guy sometimes when i look at conditions here and compare it with life in Naija i conclude that Nigerians are not living but merely surviving. For instance guy since i was born in Naija i ve never had light for 24hrs but for the first time in my life i am experiencing the first 5 yrs of uninterrupted power. When I came newly na so i go denthink if d lights wud go off but for where. Till now i still feel i am dreaming that lights or power can be ever constant

I'm so happy you move out from a country WHR illiterate are celebrated than the literate

a country WHR you pay NEPA bill even when they don't bring light for weeks

a country WHR the politicians play politics on citizens lives

a country where youth can kill theirselves for the politician

I'm so happy for u

only revolution could make things work well in this country. no PDP, APC,UNN or UPP can make Nigeria better. we just they bobo ourselves

we thought buhari would but that man is a disappointment

Bros thank u so much. I am grateful and wish u and many good hearted person the best.
U re right I really vouched for Buhari. I expected a lot from him but it is sad he has disappointed and going into half of his tenure there is nothing more he can offer. I expected him to be ruthless in dealing with persons and issues that cud derail his plans but sadly it seems he even never had any plan. Even though I am out i still feel for many Nigerians back home especially d poor
My experience here has shown me that if everything is in place we dont need so much to live well. U dont need to pack and embezzle what u cant finish. Let it go around and we all live well. But sadly those greedy beasts are really animalistic and heartless.
Nigeria needs a very bloody revolution that will "cleanse" that country or better divide.
Here I watch news of malnourished children in Borno and saw kids lying on d floor in the hospital during meningitis outbreak in a country where trillions are spent to maintain a few is madness. No hope for that doomed nation.

Oh I remember, he once told a widow to 'go and die' and probably wouldn't have apologized and assisted her if not for the public outcry.
