The body, headed secretly by Abba Kyari, performed creditably well in overseeing the even distribution of Nigerian wealth among the Fulani lords and in sponsoring the actualization of the age-long Fulanization plans.  Considering their roles, when Buhari died and a doppelganger was improvised in the person of Jubril from Sudan, Nigeria ceased from having a president; instead, she now has the presidency.   Follow us on twitter (ajuede.com) or on Instagram (ajuedeman) for details of the global situation presentl...
