Captain 1 @eorcester777

Why do you show these pictures like they mean anything?? Photographers follow your president everywhere, and out of courtesy they greet him or shake hands and you translate as whatever you want to represent it as..

TheTalk.NG recalls that Ndume came under fire for sharing the video of Nigerians waiting for palliative at President Tinubu’s residence in Lagos with a cryptic post which said poverty does not know boundaries or politics.

Meanwhile, TheTalk.NG reported that Ndume noted that he is a friend of President Tinubu but wondered why the government is in a hurry to pass the tax reform bill into law.

Ndume voiced concerns over the Tax Reform Bill introduced by President Tinubu’s administration, citing its “wrong timing” as one of his primary objections.

The lawmaker explained his grouse with the reforms by Tinubu and even threatened to leave APC.
