So buhari have gone to negotiate with Iran terrorist deceptively, of all countries the only place he want to do negotiation is Iran. I see he is afraid of the biafrans that is why he have gone underground to come and fight the biafrans. But he must not succeed. Amin
ReplyDeleteI hope he is not going to negotiate with terrorist with our oil and gas because if anything is happening in Iran it's terrorism, or is he afraid of the biafrans already when they have no intentions of waging war?
