“I stopped when he mentioned IGR. It’s very easy to spot Empty heads.”
mighty_lumidee:
“This is irritating. Tinubu left office as governor since 2007, I would like to ask did he has successors? Why is he taking all the glory? As the godfather? From we know most of his successors performed better than him. How did he build Lagos?”
Nigerianlens:
“Remove the “financial”. Just call him what he is, a wizard.”
DrMel_:
“Financial wizard indeed.. all he did was say it’s my turn and an entire country has been in shambles, only a wizard can do this.”
Germanprinz:
“Gbenga is transition from a comedian to a clown. I remember when he use to organise the TDH show in the 90s. Guy, just shut up your mouth.”
