Benny: For senate president haaaaa when no be president of the country.. this is the cost of governance that Obi was talking about. It’s too much na…
@KODUSOLE: This is why they make politics a do or die affair. They will never remove subsidy from their wasteful lifestyle or cut the cost of governance but are ready tax life out of the struggling masses.
Dr Uzoma Ajegbo: What’s the use of all these? How can 1 man be wasting this much resources when a good percentage of Nigerians are living on less than $1 per day?

@ayomidejishaw: They love the attention and luxury lifestyle as long as it’s at the expense of the people and tax payers.
- Deyinka: Mr. President @officialABAT has called upon the masses to make sacrifices in light of the current economic situation. However, I would like to know what specific sacrifices the president and his co-politicians are willing to make for a better Nigeria?
@kentisalsoTobi: this isn’t too much?
@Teeworld2022: Nigeria are not ready too change the system let keep looking, tariff is about too skyrocket to 25% or more ,and those who want too keep the ground running we are watching them..shegt pro Max already looming over the cities
Benjamin Eze: This is the reason why all of them will go to any extent to be senate president. It’s not cos of any love of service. It’s cos of these perks of office.
