Isn’t it too early to be speaking a few second time period when Tinubu has not even spent one yr in workplace? Is that this what ought to be bothering folks like Akpabio? Shouldn’t he be pondering of the way to assist to handle the insecurity going through the nation the place farmers nonetheless can’t farm; the place folks can’t conveniently journey on the roads?
It’s unlucky that our flesh pressers won’t ever change. The senate president can’t say he doesn’t know the present temper of the residents of the nation. From the northern to the southern a part of the nation, the persons are hungry and unsafe.

As insecurity and financial hardship proceed to linger, many Nigerians who’ve been pushed to the wall are left with no possibility however to throng the palliative distribution centres put in place by authorities officers or different stakeholders.
Everywhere in the world, what normally occurs is that after elections, these elected are allowed to control. For this reason is unhappy that fairly than advising the president on the way to sort out the challenges going through the nation, Akpabio is busy plotting and speaking about 2027.
