DEAR NED NWOKO SIR. Pa Ned Nwoko has found another strategy to arrest that small girl’s brother again.
Sir, it’s time to let that girl go sir. She no want you anymore, just leave her and her family alone.
I know it’s that picture of her alleged new boyfriend’s hand on her soft hips that triggered this new arrest, but sir, you have to find it somewhere in your heart to let that beautiful, fresh warm-skinned, tomato Jos, soft yansh, talented young girl go. Grandpa please sir.
