  1. Judgment day. Anyone of them quizzed or taken to court by EFCC over genuine corrupt cases is done in this earth. This still goes to everyone who commits sins of any kind and still accuse Muhammadu Buhari. For the same measure one doles out against another so shall be measured back to him or her too. That is the Judgment of God who is righteous and loves justice
