  1. All under Buhari/APC watch.The highest unemployment ever; the largest number of people killed by Fulani terrorists; the highest inflation ever; the most flagrant nepotism in our history. APC, the worst party to exist in Nigeria and still wanting to continue to perpectuate its barbaric practice. Anybody willing to vote for this party should be ready to eat dust for the next eight years
