Hahaha,this country will never stop amazing me. It's ok to respect the passing of Senato Bochong Nkwain. He was thier own. The mayor of Bangou?,fallen soldiers? Laughable! Is this the first time a mayor dies or soldiers killed before parliament opens and did they offer any second of prayers. Am sure God doesn't need thier stinky prayers! Infact,I might just not read this bloc or comment
