Well… Mr President… Sheikh Gumi is alleged to be a questionable character and known to be a staunch Atiku supporter…. Not sure what value he brings to the table… make courtesy no go bring wahala for us o

investing public funds in your family business is corruption. Yall are the same, none of them have the interest of the general public at heart, I just hope you win that election so we can all see with our 👀 how things will be done.
