@Karen Bush asked: “So what will be her own job, after appointing half of the whole school as aides??.
@Anonymous said: “She is inspired by the nonsense they call politics at the state and national level. Nigeria is officially the country with the worst humans when it comes to leadership at all levels. A common school prefect taking 50 as aides so she could have much of the sug funds to steal. Believe me she is one of those younger ppl look up to in one of these mushroom churches scattered all over. Nigeria is a moral disaster and the open sore of the entire world.”
@ObaiGods said: “50 aides too much for SUG of institution.”
