It use to be boys are not smiling, these days it is girls are not smiling!!! The women are totally angry at the government's plan to build a N4BN mission house for first lady, patience Jonathan. They have taken to the street to express their gross displeasure at this - here are some photos from the protest
I specialize in investigative reportage across several subject matter and sectors but mainly focus on metro events and investigation. Do leave your thoughts and opinion on my reports to let me know what you think about them. Thank you

Politics could be a very lucrative business when the greater part masses treat national issues with non-chalance. A 4billion Naira mansion for the First Lady? I think that is preposterously outrageous. Nigerians have to come out in large numbers to protect against this madness. Anyone in any of the governmental offices should consider his/herself as the people's servant, and shouldn't feel privileged to amass the nation's wealth to his/her family.

IF THIS HUGE AMOUNT OF MONEY IS AVAILABLE, WHICH OF COURSE WE ALL KNOW IT IS ALWAYS AVAILABLE. WHY NOT USE IT TO ALLEVIATE THE HARDSHIP OF POOR INNOCENT NIGERIANS? WHAT WILL AN INDIVIDUAL DO WITH A ₦4 BILLION HOUSE? WHY CAN'T PEOPLE BE HUMANE? INNOCENT NIGERIANS ARE SUFFERING AND DYING IN POVERTY, UNEMPLOYED GRADUATES, EXPENSIVE ITEMS EVEN FOOD TO EAT IS A WAR, TEACHERS STRIKING, POOR HEALTH CARE, POOR INFRASTRUCTURE, POOR EDUCATION FACILITIES, POOR ELECTRICITY SUPPLY, POOR WATER SUPPLY, AND SOMEONE WANTS A HOUSE WORTH BILLIONS OF NAIRA, ON WHAT BASES? HOW CAN THESE SO CALLED PEOPLE IN POWER BE SO SELFISH, HEARTLESS, EVIL AND CARELESS WITHOUT THE FEAR OF GOD IN THEM WHILE DEALING WITH OTHER PEOPLE? THIS IS NOT HOW TO TREAT PEOPLE ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY CALL YOU THEIR LEADER. WHY NOT USE THIS HUGE AMOUNT OF MONEY TO BETTER POOR PEOPLE'S LIVES? IMAGINE A WOMAN WHOSE HUSBAND IS A PUBLIC SERVANT TO LIVE IN A HOUSE WORTH ₦4 BILLION. WE NIGERIANS ARE BLESSED TO HAVE SUCH ABUNDANCE OF RESOURCES IN OUR COUNTRY THAT PROVIDE US WITH MONEY, BUT WE ARE TOO UNGRATEFUL TO GOD AND WE HAVE NO REGARDS FOR HUMANITY. THIS IS A "MOTHER" WHO IS SUPPOSE TO KNOW THAT INNOCENT NIGERIAN CHILDREN LIVE UNDER THE BRIDGES AND HAVE NO HOMES TO LIVE, STILL SHE WANTS A ₦4 BILLION HOUSE. WHY NOT USE THIS MONEY TO BUILD HOUSES FOR POOR PEOPLE TO LIVE AT LEAST? IT’S A SHAME. THE JUDGMENT OF GOD IS UNAVOIDABLE.
