Idiot! Some of these govs have taken advantage of the grave poverty situation the electorates have found themselves in and now distribute ' meat ' and call it ' empowerment ' while they loot billions meant for the improvement of the Standard of living of their electorates... treating them like street beggars

Unknown said...

......and then some of them will just sell 2 out-rightly and feast on the other on July 17.(Eid ul-Fitr).

Dear Linda, no goat can produce 3 times in a year, the most is at least 2 times as the gestational period of a goat is 150 days

Unknown said...

How authentic is this news? I know northerners by religious law/geographical location do not fancy alcohol, but they are by no means barred from taking other legal and illegal highs. I am particularly worried that this guy may have taken a "designer speedball" belonging to Terry G. "Goat for women empowerment", chineke ekwe kwala!!!!

Native Goats!!! Give a man fish and he will live for a day ... Teach him to fish and he will live forever.... Let the women go to school , provide free education and you will never need to give them goats from their resources you have robbed them of....

Anonymous said...

This is the exact type of empowerment we do not need. The goat =3 pots of stew. After that then what?

KC said...

Sorry Christie, all your comments are very shallow. It's really not compulsory to comment. Unless you do so because of linda's giveaways.

Anonymous said...

Biko. What do goats have to do with "female empowerment"?

Unknown said...

Hope it gets to the hands of these widows

Ammy said...

hope its not from the state money sha.

God bless him

Instead of hurling insults and mocking the governor, it would be more constructive to offer options you believe are better. That's how to progress. We complain bitterly about all sorts yet so many hardly bring anything constructive to the table.
