iamDrRhymes:
I respect the fact that Buhari does not discriminate politically. Imagine, he is traveling with two PDP Governors. This is inclusiveness.

That is our darling Daddy for you.
He belongs to nobody and belongs to everybody!
A man after God's heart.

Emekus, The President of everyone in your Yard, Local Government, and State at large, you mean?

Oya........ sip wine and cool body......

I thought Mr Hope just became governor, isn't he supposed to be too busy to have time for this mini Holiday?

U don't give what u don't have.
Anyway shaa, I comment my reserve

If u think Buhari and his cabinets care about this country then u are here for a big ride. With the speculation about how Uzodinma was brought into power and the effects on our polity, I think Buhari ought to have calm down in relating with him but reverse is the case. Someone should then point to where Buhari integrity lies. Buhari is setting dangerous standard for another incoming president, it will be a great calamity to know that under a president, the other two arms of government are nonfunctional and nonexistent. He may not be that sensible but this portray deep meaning.
