The lifeless presidiot is gradually taking every steps within his lifeless brain to bring every government apparatus under his control, and someone may ask, what for? At this point there are some dumb fools still trying to sound diplomatically and politically correct to the fact that terrorist Muhammadu Buhari wants to implement OIC agenda in Nigeria which is Islamization of Nigeria. For those who may not understand the characters of the placement. It simply means that Security apparatus will now be above any rules of the Judiciary and can no longer by law answerable to any Judicial authority for what ever actions taken by any security body in any case. Remember that all security apparatus is currently under the total control of the lifeless presidiot Muhammadu Buhari, now by the implementation of this placement, it will now enhance the total influence of the dullard to do what ever he wishes using intimidations and threats with the security forces. Already the National Assembly and the Judiciary is totally irrelevant in this government, otherwise let someone prove me wrong. The only solution to all this lunacy is the total restoration of BIAFRA, Simple.
