A very good isuggestion to. all Nigerian (accepted).
Hmmm nawoooo,,, let Government declare state of emergency in the state now
See this Zombie… Why is state of emergency not declared in Zamfara, Adamawa, and Kaduna which are the states where all manner of terrorists activities take place?… Aboki and double standard are inseparable
What is the litaral meaning of terrorist please explain
Yes, the military should take over before things gets worst.
Mazi Nnamdi Kanu should be released for these problems to stop. The government of Nigeria doesn’t want to get to the root of the matter. Once Mazi Nnamdi is released the whole violence would end
