ReplyDeleteLolz.
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of headline is that?
Anyway it seems only criminals bear the name Tompolo
Should find the so called ex-niger delta and treat him like this Tompolo
ReplyDeleteWhy not look for Shekau with more urgency? He is more of a threat than Tompolo. He has killed,maimed and destroyed the economy of the north east.
