“Age is a grace, and 7 decades on the Throne can only be the work of God and Grace.
If I were the President of Nigeria today, I’ll declare 3 days of National Mourning for the death of The Queen Elizabeth II of England.

“Those of you that went to UNN, Nsukka, get ready to redo your CVs. Hopefully, your former school will be renamed Queen Elizabeth University of Nigeria. I congratulate you on this remarkable progress,” he said.
