Huh! Same people that they had said do not carry arms. And the question remain — Self-defence from who?.
»» Still on matters in Nigeria!
“Water bill is another RUGA in disguise” — that's from Southern and Middle Belt leaders. During the week, they rejected the plot by the Federal government of Nigeria to reintroduce water bill. Senators in the 9th National Assembly are divided over the plot to reintroduce the rejected water bill, which aside from making the Federal Government to be in control of water resources, would also make lands around the water resources to be taken over by the central government.
Huh!

“Buhari is taking Nigeria back to 1948” — that's a statement by Femi Falana (SAN).

After failed attempts to deny the undeniable, the Nigerian army said “We thought the policemen were kidnappers”.
