ReplyDeleteAND WHAT NEXT? HOPE THE AGILE GOVERNOR OF EKITI STATE WILL UTILIZE THE FULL LEGAL RIGHT TO SUE THIS AGENT OF DARKNESS WORKING FOR THE FED GOVT FOR MURDER AND EXTRA JUDICIAL KILLING OF ONE OF ITS SUBJECT. NIGERIAN SECURITY AGENTS ARE NOW TAKING THE LIVES OF INNOCENT CITIZENS THEY ARE BEING PAID TO PROTECT. BUHARI HAS A CASE TO ANSWER FOR HIS PRONOUNCED HUMAN RIGHT ABUSE SINCE THE INCEPTION OF THIS ADMINISTRATION.
