A thief vying for FIFA Presidency. Don’t bother wasting your time.
You’re simply a bonehead for casting aspersion on him without evidence. Did he steal from you or your parents? You wretched jobless internet warrior!

These people make me laugh everything is mere PR for them. Who knows IBB at FIFA who cares about Kalu at FIFA? What a bunch of jokers!
That is the mistake of we Nigerians.We should always support our own no matter the circumstances. Even if Jonathan contest for FIFA,we should give him the support as long as he is a Nigerian.Nigeria First then all other things comes second.
One thief supporting another thief?
