the righteous suffers too
Really bad news, I don’t know were this nigeria is heading to, my god people have family for goodness sak
May God ve mercy on us
ignorance and poverty killed them all….thanks to our government.
Sad and tragic! Endemic porverty and illiteracy responsible for the urgly development. But on a more cursory look, I think
blames ought to be heaped on the door steps of the govt for failling 2 address some of these societal challenges. I believe if our roads were working, there would not have been any accident. Again, other nations of the world use rail transport to covey petroleum products, I wonder why the Nigerian govt is yet to toe such part.
Na wa oh. Y must we blame spiritual beings for every lil tin dt happens to us? Dnt dis guys knw d dangers inherent frm such a dangerous act? Hw many lives are we to lose due to ignorance b4 we learn?
God will delivered Nigeria from blood sucking spirit
I feel 4 dem is a pitty may their souls R I P
