ReplyDeleteAre we supposed to feel sorry for him? Thunder fire Buhari.
ReplyDeleteGood riddance to bad rubbish.
Now that the dead have been buried, can Npower list now be released and stipends for 2016 paid?
ReplyDeleteMay their souls RIP
ReplyDeleteMay they rest on but at least their bodies were intact and not mutilated by terrorists parading as herdsmen. No ones loss is greater than anyone’s loss.
ReplyDeleteIts either that karma is knocking on Buhari's door or Aisha has exchanged the dead victims for Yusuf and Buhari himself.
ReplyDeleteSorry oooo Oga President!
ReplyDeleteBuhari should just retire. No love for him again. He's just too toxic and has destroyed and divided Nigeria beyond repair.
