    is shameless country where nothing good comes from.

    Breaking housee that blocks soak away?or roads in Asaba?

    Any road or drainage systems in Asaba?

    A town with only one major road/Nnebisi road.

    Turain Yardua,is right in rejecting land offer.

    After all,her Husband did not carry land to the grave.

    Boko Haram,Niger Delta,OPC and more to come,are indication of ending a worthless and failed state called Nigeria,where stealing and criminals are the pride of this failed state
