[2/16, 9:01 PM] +234 813 697 4204: We don't want him again. He is a stupid governor who is afraid of his party. He doesn't want to leave the party and he is saying nonsense. He knows the construction of the party and he quickly went to court bcos he knows he will be expelled from the party. Let him do his worst Atiku Abubakar will still have more than 25percent in his state. Era of written results have gone. Shior
