As we approach the upcoming Nigerian general election, how will the election impact the Anioma people? What will be the role of the Anioma people in the political, economic, and social outlook after the election?
In America, one of the taboo topics is race, especially if you are black. A society that refuses to listen to any segment of its poor would suffer the wrath of the poor, if not God...
