Good one.

Catholic church is a one universal church.

They don't disappoint.

That is why they left CAN when CAN showed they are bias as regards politics.

What is fair and just is what we need to practice.

No Time to sit on the fence.

Muslim-Muslim ticket is a brazen insult on our diversity. Nigeria is about 50-50 muslims/Christians. Everybody must be represented.

Speak for yourself.

You quote stats like you carried out any meaningful research.

A collective interest is the aggregate of personal interest

Currently the personal interest of many Nigerians is good governance and a good leader who can deliver it.

I didn't speak for you. But I guess I must have hit a nerve.
You are an avid er of Obi, and don't waste any opportunity to criticize Atiku or Tinubu, but you are also an Igbo man doing business in Lagos because Anambra is not conducive enough to make profit. You are a true definition of "case in point."
