YOUNG, FLY & FLASHY Keshinro Ololade popularly known as Lil Kesh Covers Taylor Live Magazine’s Latest Issue (TL Magazine).  In a quick chat with the magazine, Lil Kesh  talks about how he has successfully created a niche for himself and how it all began. “Being an artist to me means being a servant to humanity”. ...  See the full spread below or visit www.taylorlive.com  @taylorliveng  Credit: Credit:  Cover Star @lilkeshofficial  Editor In Chief @seyiitaylor  photographed @dnl_lens Creative Director @Davidstarr_ Stylist: @Thestyle_architect Designers @stitch_culture @art_ghor  Makeup  @lekeshades Hair @highdtosin  Content Writers  @peteadenuga & @oby_young  Graphics @mag_designz  & @valz_media Powered by: @taylorliveng & @phinewardmedia Location @doublemsuites

Don't mind them. Buhari loves igbos so much that 5 percent of his total appointments were to igbos. While over 70 percent are northerners. He even appointed two igbos as his special advisers out of over 20 special advicers.

Buhari loves igbos so much so that he appointed a whole five of them into his cabinet even the the constitution requires him to do so. It's not like he reads, so am sure the appointment was based on his love for igbos not minding the fact that all those he appointed were either the people that helped in his election journey from his ANPP days to his CPC to his APC and a few connected to the V. P and ApC stalwarts. Not even based on merit. Let's face it, he never makes any appointments based on merits.

The most frustrating thing In this whole thing is that the igbos do not realize that is out of the benevolent love he has for them that he has never appointed an igbo man to his security council. Why will the igbos want to bother with such a stressful position.


You see he looks out for the igbos so much that he has not initiated any single project in the South East but has only continued with other projects that the former presidents initiated and of cause try to steal the glory and accolades even though he doesn't plan on completing them. Let's face it, the sout East do not need completed projects, it will make them too comfortable. That's why he has made sure that the Enugu international Airport and Onitsha port that was completed by the former government will not work as he jeorpadised the projects and made sure government doesn't run it because like I said it will make the igbos too comfortable and he loves the south East so much to afford to make their lives better.


Buhari is a true hero to the igbos and the only way the igbos can only pay his good deeds back is by sending him back to Daura this weekend so he can enjoy the rest of the time with his family. Anyone that loves Buhari should vote him out so he can enjoy his retirement.

As much as I hate the governor. However it is gross stupidity to be a deputy to someone you think has failed his people and not take the honorouble part of resigning, instead criticizing him publicly just to emass sympathy while enjoying the perks of office.

That cancer center was donated by mtn. When you lie, use style. BTW. There are only two doctors operating in that whole center and one of them is old and hardly comes to work.
