My view: Both birds of the same feather, they run from one ruling party to another just to loot and ignore millions of their fellow citizens suffering in silence and voiceless. Bunch of evil politicians PDP and APC, Atiku and president Buhari why can't you promise jobless Nigerians with no hope of getting a job, that you'll put in place Income/Housing Support to help them. Stop lying and do the right thing, as you all know Nigerian working politicians have 5-square meals a day, earn millions monthly while millions of Nigerians have absolutely nothing and starving. Use your vote wisely not for old wicked politicians in new robe, they couldn't careless about you. Atiku did nothing when he was Obasanjo's vice president. All you have to do is to challenge Atiku to promise he'll give job-seekers allowance on his first day in office. On Tuesday, Buhari announced to the world that he "commissioned the Ariaria Market Independent Power Project", oh well, what about Patani a Local Government Area of Delta State, the people there are suffering, they have no electricity and you have been in office for four years, what a shame.?
