“Nigerians must realise that d people's sovereignty is far greater than party's supremacy. Just like d bible dearer to me than d constitution”

“What you say about Dino does not bother me. What God & my conscience says, far more important. All men must give account of their stewardship.”

“All politics are local. I will not leave a more qualified brother like Saraki who is not only more capable but from the North Central to …The gullibility of so many on social media is embarrassing. I have no regret supporting @bukolasaraki. I worked and voted competence.”

“I will be the last person to practice anti party or support the satanic party i assiduously helped to uproot.”
