Good for him. Anyways, I sell PC games.

Omo wa ni.

But the people that wrote the empty report need to go back to Primary School. Useless dumb journalists

A good man. I learnt he studied criminology in Harvard. Very sound and intelligent. He's from Ogun State

tinubu is following buhari's footsteps

Even though I dont like Tiluuuuumbu, I Tiluuumbu to be nepotistic to the very core!!!

Even Tiluumbu sef is not nepotistic as I want. He should make all the head of agencies YORUBA. Alll the H.O.Ds YORUBA. The north should shout and wail till they kingdom come, nothing will Happen.

When Buhari was doing same, they all kept quiet. Tinubu is silently putting places ahead of 2027. He is not like Jonathan that stayed put and allowed Northerners put Pepper inside his eye.

I'll miss Bichi. Dude doggedly smoked out that midget Emefiele who took the CBN as his personal and family business empire and robbed his country blind. It's now left for the prosecutors and the courts to do the right thing.
