My president, it’s good both you & PYO are attending so Kamala Harris can see Nigeria had much better options than the crook she endorsed af ter the heist of an election. With that endorsement she cast a fundamental doubt on her electabilityGood luck to her but Trump all the way

@jagiriga

The current Democratic government in the United States has zero integrity or values in regards to democracy in Nigeria most especially. We’ve all seen their actions and inactions with regard to the 2023 elections in Nigeria. I hope they lose to Trump.
