@tonyajah said: “GEJ once named University of Lagos (Unilag) after Moshood Abiola University, and it didn’t work.
I see the same thing being repeated here. What people know is National Theatre, and that’s settles it.”
@Nairaexchanger said: “When they are gone, we will correct all the madness.”
@seyialli said: “You talk too much.
Nobody regard you or any of your word.
Find somewhere to look for your daily bread as show might not come for Agulu gbajue!”
