Great. One completely off the satanic party coven. God bless the benue people if herdsmen are upset they can kill themselves but as for Benue I stand by their decision and I praise God on their behalf. Apc media demons won't like this but their is nothing they can do about it. Hope Ortom has learned his lesson in a bitter way. Next time Ortom will know better that jumping around political party might be a great mistake. He was deceived by apc vampire and after falling their prey they unleashed horror on him and his people and even intimidated him not to talk. Apc is a scam. Apc is useless. Apc is satanic. Apc is demonic. I spit!!! 15 Likes |
