Death of every human being on earth is a tragedy and a loss but we would have been a much better place if u and ur eevil greedy wife were to die today.
Don't you think you are very ediotic? Just a question.
It is the evil machinations of the ndc and what are they going to get from that? If somebody is making his mind to eliminate the man then they must be careful because ndc is his bonafide property it is not a force to join ndc,everyone joins a party of his choice not by force so why do you have to hate him and wish him dead because of ndc defeat? I can't get it,ndc is for the man and he doesn't like how somebody unknown to the party are managing it and they think he has no right? Then go and form your own party that's all. Instead of wishing him dead form your own party to contest and leave ndc alone.
