        They are on the right trajectory since they elected a leader who has his hands on issues one who didn't waste resources curing symptoms but one who administered curative drug alongside a shot of vaccines to the terror menace.

        Military coups (favorite tool of the racist colonialists for changing regimes in Africa) are nowadays frowned upon by the citizenry. The gang that terrorized Jonathan / PDP are in Buhari / APC regime. They & the imperialists & colonialists used TERROR to overthrow Jonathan / PDP.pic.twitter.com/TseUJ30ItR
