What a foolish way to die

Good one. His colleague was also lynched in Lagos for telling voters no ballot papers while he locked himself in a classroom and was busy thumb printing for APC.

I had expected Buhari to give a shoot at sight order to the military for any ballot snatcher.

That serves him right
