I thought Buhari was a Saint; Where the fuck then did his Family get all the money to fund this obscene wedding? Even more disgusting, in the face of hunger, poverty, insecurity, hopelessness and despair, prevalent amongst those ignoramuses in the North, who stupidly shout ‘Sai Baba’. Well, Baba and his family have moved on to the next level, whilst you are there wailing in despair and sadness. Good for you, idiots.
