The first time many Nigerians heard the statement "elections have consequences" was before the 2023 election. Many people did not understand that statement deeply until the new administration took over the reins of power.

He lives in me.
He watches over
Everything we see.
Into the water,
Into the truth,
In your reflection,
He lives in you.
