AgwuNwogo1 Lawless country!!!

This is part of the reason why some people call Nigeria a fat big zoo, abuse of people's right is the order of the day from so the called leaders.

What do you expect from a usurper like Uzodinma? He owes no duty to the people of Imo State because they did not elect him.
