MBuhari 350billion is not a problem. We can borrow more from China 🇨🇳

MBuhari It is obvious that Buhari's govt domestic policy is not about economy, security etc. It's policy is about religion & ethnic advancement. Anybody expecting otherwise would have to wait until 2023, that is if there is actually going to be change of govt. keepiton

MBuhari Won de o.. It's only twitter shutdown. Now it's total internet shutdown abi.. Won ti de oo. They should shut everything down sef. let go back to stone age. Engungun be careful, na express you dey go oo..

MBuhari Mostly in southern Nigeria , so they don't care ! It's government of the north for the north only ! Where is Arewatwitter ? Keepiton

MBuhari Of course, couple with useless loan he collected so far

MBuhari Nigerian Government spent 6.8trillion Dollars to shut down Twitter for 1week

MBuhari U no they fair jail .... 😂😂😂😂😂 u still they use twitter ...

MBuhari Does that mumu knows there are many business transactions on twitter? All they want is hardship, is person working and sweating

MBuhari He knows how to beg for loan...he begs for a living.

MBuhari They haven't seen anything yet. Clueless individuals. It's so unfortunate.

MBuhari Sebi den go go borrow from China...

MBuhari He doesn't care, he's used to borrowing. Buh is it his fault? Of all the intellectuals and sound minds across the length and breath of this country, look at what we voted!!!

MBuhari Very stupidly arrogant

MBuhari Dey will borrow and pay. Tell Mr bubu

MBuhari He doesn't care because that is not cow and the money yr talking about are made by Southerners not Northerners, hs even happy that his crippling the Southern economy so tht we all can be on same level wth the North, 90% of southerners engage more on social media compare to North

MBuhari They won't mind because even with such amount of money coming in, they still remain clueless on how to manage such funds.

MBuhari Where's the one they've been making since it's not lost. Abeg comot jare.
