Fresh air. The people deserve the leader they get.

Demdem: And someone will claim that Jonathan isn't foolish

Jonathan is not foolish, it's just that there is stealing in his DNA. Jonathan is looting, his wife Sheppopo is looting, even his mother donated multi-million naira hostels without having any known source of income, this means the mother is also looting. Thank God Jonathan's father is late, if not the old man would have been looting too.
