Your sister?? Ur father pikin or ur mom sister?? Tribalism don eat deep into una body na why e dey hard for people like una to succeed....Arindin sad
You must be lucky to have achieved what I have achieved in life, and if you are someone that know what it truly mean to succeed, you wouldn't belittle that woman achievement.

You are just a chronic loser and I don't think someone like you know what it mean to be successful.

You are just an unrepentant and a dirty tribalist/hypocrite. Your compliment was based on the fact she is a Yoruba woman, and not because you feel the need to appreciate her. What have you achieved, loud mouth?

Why is she wasting her time in US when she can come home and use her wealth of experience in helping Buhari's government fight Boko Haram?

Re: Oluwatobi Al-Bakare Becomes Second Lieutenant Of US Army, Husband Celebrates Her by MorufuAtanda:
But why did she run away from Nigeria, since she is Yoruba Muslim and loves Buhari's change agenda. I thought we Yoruba claim that Buhari was the best thing after ewedu and amala? huh

Why so many of your tribesmen are as despicable n foolish as you have chosen to misbehave is beyond human comprehension.
