You are going nowhere!!!. You know. Your remnant generation have no understanding of real society. Look Bulabu (unstable) oka na akpu like Tunubu.


How could you be planning Atiku when people are dying, Army is 100% Northern and his brother is just stepping down?


Everybody is voting LP parallel in Anambra Central. Victor Umeh at Anambra Central. Just go to your house and rest, since you couldn't struggle to impeach Buhari for Nigerians or move motion to cancel borrowings.


Even APGA is hereby declared history. Enough of Biafra war era. No HoA for them. They should leave Instagram generation in peace. Selfish past generation.

Sen. Victor Umeh will have an easy ride on this one.
The stronger contention should be Tony Nwoye battling Ebele Obiano and Stella Oduah in Anambra North.
