My brother I'm the happiest man on earth right now.
Since 1999 somebody finally recognised my people.
Labour Party took us out of limelight through the only office we rep ourselves in the senate. Thank God for a sensible leader like Asiwaju who finally acknowledged our people.
May Almighty Allah bless his administration.
