The former Chief Security Officer to the late military Head of State, General Sani Abacha, and the 2023 presidential candidate of the Action Alliance, Major Hamza Al-Mustapha, has condemned agitations for a military takeover in the country stressing that military coup is a thing of the past that no longer has a place in Nigeria. Al-Mustapha stated this on Wednesday in Abuja while addressing select journalists on the hardship being faced by many citizens occasioned by the removal of fuel subsidy by the federal government.

Good morning my Gist Mates! So many times I have heard people complain about how they got into a relationship, got used and then dumped for no reason. Other times i hear people complain about how their partners refused to do this or that for them and the relationship ended badly.

Before the relationship gathers momentum, they have started making attempts at sex or we already jumped into bed with them. After a while we heap all our hidden expectations on them, on...
