E pain am!

For your mind, he is igbo? Why do you mention igbo every minute of your life as if they are the cause of yoruba misery? Why are you so obsessed with them self . Inferiors will always be obsessed with their superiors.

Please remove that mall, a mall is not a tourist destination, I don't know but to me, I see malls as place where you go to buy things and or spend money.
Not a place to go get experience.
