    Was his name not mentioned in the Panama papers?

      Of course he was conspicuously active in the panama offshore saga.
      All the same: may his soul rest in peace

        Why should the soul of a rogue rest in peace, why? Stop wishing evil for Nigeria!

        Rasheed Gbadamosi was a rogue that should face trial if he did not dive into a grave.

      This is why people have been saying President Buhari is the worst president Nigeria has ever had.
      No initiative, no sense, just moping with long neck, almost like hungry cow. See this now. This useless
      man that died will now write his loot down in his will as legitimate property to be shared by his children.
      The only thing President Buhari will then do is to send useless letter to the family to praise their father.
      Is that how to fight corruption? President Buhari himself is not clean too. How can he fight corruption?
      Is it not this President Buhari that took one billion Naira last year July and put in Gen. Marwa’s pocket?

        THIEVES ARE TO BE BEATEN UP; OR KILLED – WHICHEVER IS FASTER – NOT CELEBRATED AT DEATH.
