You don’t need to travel to America to know how power moves from the Republicans to the Democrats and from the Democrats to the Republicans.You can even go to Ghana that is very close to us. The present administration lost some years back and of course they came back, and won the elections.

Why I flaunt my cellulite-Iggy Azaela
Rapper Iggy Azaela has received a lot of criticism over her body ..The star who recently had a boob job tells WHO magazine she has cellulite and is not ashamed of it.She also says her butt is 100 percent real
It's important people see celebrities, or see me as well, go to the beach and have cellulite and know it, like "I'm cool, I'm OK with that and I still feel confident"
I don't want to surgery-shame or Botox-shame women, either. 'It's that balance of being confident with who you are, but also if you do want to change something, if you want to dye your hair or if you want to get breast implants and that makes you happy, I don't think you should be ashamed.
Of course the butt is mine. I heard it's not a real butt, I've heard it's a number of things. I heard sometimes it's my underpants. I heard it's implants. All kinds of crazy things.

Buhari must not step into Aso Rock before May 29,Fayose will go to jail-Prophet Tibetan
Prophet Tibetan who predicted Buhari's victory has made more predictions. Speaking to Encomium, he said
Buhari will not die in office. God prolonged the life of King Hezekiah in the Bible and this is Buhari’s portion. He won’t die in office. He has a job to do. There is no time to waste. Mr. President-elect should hit the ground running on his first day in office because he already has the template of what he wants to do to liberate Nigeria since 2003. Remember I told the world in my Prediction 2015 book that General Buhari is not chosen by God but by the people of Nigeria to liberate them and since he is the one the people want, God answered their prayer by giving him the leadership of the country. Buhari should run the affairs of Nigeria without fear or favor because he has a limited time to do this work.On Tinubu, Rotimi Amaechi..
