Is the same Ambrose Alli that a university is named after? Does it mean that a university was named after a convicted person or is Buhari just acting in his usual demented way?

😥😠

He was the one that killed ambrose without any offence. Ambrose and others was charged for enriching their party. Their offense was not entrenched in party constitution. The family should reject it.

Buhari need to die first, He can't be alive to pardon those he killed Only God can do that
