The system will also produce the next governor.”So let nobody decieve you, let nobody think he can come from outside and jump inside this our ship. Na lie.”Where were they when we were trying to build this ship? They tried to destroy it, and they are still moving around, some in Abuja, some are not even in the country at all, and they are eying the position here. We are waiting for them.”
