ReplyDeleteIt is honourable people like you we want in governance in Nigeria, Buhari please i voted for you but you should cross party lines and appoint honourable men outside APC as your assistants and ministers please. The idea is to make Nigeria a great country.
ReplyDeleteAnnonymous April 13, 2015 at 8:33 AM is hereby supported.Jimi Agbaje deserves something like this.Jimi Agbaje is seen as a nice candidate but he is in a wrong party(the gluttons AND EXTRAVANGANT PARTY).Reasonable Lagosians can not risk Voting Jimi Agbaje under PDP as Nigerians risked voting Jonathan because he is personnally good.
