Nigerians react as Tinubu celebrates 2Face

@Youthinprocess

Celebrating 2Face at 50 reminds us how cultural icons shape society, yet national progress depends on policies felt in markets, schools, and clinics. Citizens hold equal power: mass turnout secures ballots—thugs fear crowds more than police. Voting starts accountability; safeguarding it gives it meaning. Apathy breeds manipulation.
Remember: Apathy built this present, If you don’t vote glitch will vote for you. Get your PVC.
