Another corrupt “politician” elected to loot and pillage our common wealth.
You must be out of your mind for making such a nasty statement about a man who just won an election today. Mr Akeredolu is yet to assume office, yet you are already accusing him of getting elected to loot and pillage your common wealth.
In the light of the above, you have succeeded in letting the public know how myopic, bigoted and immoral you are.
@Chukwu, you have a lot of time to be responding to low life people. While not overlook Jason Peter’s absurd and illogical sense of reasoning and allow him to continue to wallow in his GEJ’s mentality.
Thanks bro.
We will review and take appropriate action.
