We are waiting
Go well

He will be meeting with a republican dorminated congress. That will be almost be a natural deadlock. Also believe me, the topic of gay right will be brought up severally/regularly. That is when they will realise the reason for the invitation.
Obama we dey wait. We heard what u guys are saying. Nigeria and Africa won't allow shit to happen all in the name of freedom. Pls we don't wanna end up like Sodom and Gomorra.
That is the man I voted for,carry on my able president.
The unpredictable trip. Just agree with obama.
Sha don't discuss the gay nonsense
Are u expectin ur father to b made minister? Whats the rush? For 16yrs u had all sorts of ministers how did they help you? This is our best government by a long stretch. Try to not look stupid in your criticisms pls. Same goes for u too linda ikeji. Ur posts suggest u are hoping that buhari fails. Shame on you
Be shouting ministers without a good platform...they are downsizing ministries first....go and ask when obasanjo and goodluck appointed ministers..research...obote!!!!
If something goes wrong with d ministries its d president u will still blame...let dem plan well...nigerians!!!!!!
Pray u live long enough to understand the meaning of 'senior moments'...fool!!!!
Reagan is arguably one of d greatest US presidents- his senior moments were catastrophic...same for nixon....u should try and read oh it makes u less ignorant...try u hear??
I can bet buhari knows more than u & ur family line put together about global affairs.
u just type rubbish- respect yourself..
U r mad....ur parents will be proud of ur statement right?
Shut up!!! Contradicting urself...what is d deadlock?....republicans seem to have a more belligerent approach to terrorists.
they are anti-gay too.
what is your point?
If they dont help us based on gay ish...we have options- china & russia will be waiting with open arms-US doesnt want that....read about there power tussle in djibouti.
Hmm. Okay o
We tired of buhari travelling in an out of nigeria. Shuuu!! Do something fast.. BH keeps killing pple everyday in the north

Secretary of state is to welcome Mr president. Not even the VP. Well its non of my business

I thought Buhari's handlers would have incorporated in his visit to the US to include addressing the United States Congress. The last time any Nigerian leader addressed the US Congress was some decades ago. Even the I- too- know OBJ could not. Are we moving forward in our foreign relations policy?
For lekki or ikoyi
hope they wont persuade you to legalize gay marriage in nigeria because if you tell him you will think of it, you will perish on earth.
