    Why is huhari doing this to us?
    Even the local rice (ofada) he wants us to do is dirty and expensive. One can't uses it for fried rice, coconut rice even jollof self. Only good for white/plain. E no go better for this man and him stupid policies. Is it local rice the cook his households in the villa? Can't he see or hear that the masses are suffering? Oh God can we wait till 2019 to use our voters card?
