ReplyDeleteGood. I don't mind them putting square pegs in square holes. It is now left to them to perform.
ReplyDeleteGood one
ReplyDeleteShows the governor doesn't care about state of origin...
Is kanu not from Imo State?
DeleteFrom Abia but born and bred in Imo. He’s more of an Imolite than most people from Imo. His investments in Imo surpasses a lot of Imolites. So he is an Imolite! After all Abia was divided from Imo.
