ReplyDeletepls can someone ask uncle Joe, Uncle Mark etc what they have achieved international and locally? Nothing but uncompleted projects and irrelevant achievements like underage marriage, 10yrs sentence for human traffickers, cover-up on for subsidy and pension thieves…….just name it
ReplyDeleteNigerians are making frantic individual efforts to uplift the image of their country,while our people in govt.are busy disgracing us gross misconduct in high places.physical violence every time in our legislative houses. High profile open looting of public funds. Fictitious projects & unaccountabilty. Etc. Thank you my brother for making us proud. If the govt had built a well equipped hospital here,I'm sure you'd love to come home so Americans will come looking for you here in Naija. But they'll prefer to carte our funds away & stack in foreign accounts all over the world. Shameless pple!
