The Disposition, Usman Okai Austin Cca Tenacity And The Rest Of Them (Part 1) by Samuel Mona Endurance

 

No one, not even a soothsayer can foresee or convincingly predict how the activist dazzled to claim the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, house of representative ticket during the Quakertown contest witnessed a couple of months ago.
