Nigerians reacted to the governor that has 30 children:
@Nafiu Lawal Bungudu, “Many of us will learn from His Excellency and emulate him, maybe people like me will have at least 10 children at 35yrs. Your Excellency, you’re a Hero of the season if not century”.
@Nelson Oriarebun, “That is why he has to steal as much as possible because he has so many mouths to feed. Funny part is there are really hardworking people, especially in the villages with a large families like this and still cater for them without stealing government money. Those are the ones that deserve such publicity and not this rogue”.
@Outsmart Onwe, “And he will use the money meant for university lecturers, pensioners, civil servants as well as our fuel and gas money to send all of them abroad to study in a country that even their president can only give birth to 2 children then the gullible youths whose destinies are at stake will still sing praises to them because of tribe and religion”.
@Mohammed Jamiu, “This is a whole local government area, in fact more than 1 local govt 1 man chaiii u r part of our problem in this country as per shortage of funds in circulation”
@Muhammad Sabiu Jibril, “He has an eligible number of voters in his household may Allah enrich him more to take care of his crowd home”.
@Abu Faaris Al-Juhany, “This his children alone go cancel one LG for Onitsha. Those people will continue ruling till they are tired. Mutu-baba”
@Saheed Ikumapayi, “This is a governor with a huge family, many children of hate and bitterness shouting here, their own fathers who were born 3 or 4 are not even local government chairman”.
@Ibrahim Bello, “Advantage of marrying four wives”
@Ibrahim Muhammed Abubakar, “I see no problem having these children so long as he’s catering for their responsibilities which he’s, obviously. If you find it wrong to have this number of children then it’s out of jealousy and hatred. May Allah bless them.
