Lets unite against corruption and poverty. Stop calling for tribal and religious sentiments. The policians dont even care about their tribe or religion whether youre existing or not. All they care for is their bellies, pockets and children. Their children are abroad going to the best universities and applying for citizenships in USA and UK while you are here calling for violence and tribalism. If the war begins,non of them nor their wives and children will remain in the country. Stop fooling yourselves and face reality.
