When they sing, “Jungle don dey mature,” they were actually hinting on how successfully they have hidden away PVCs in bushes. Could these cards evaporate from @inecnigeria office without the knowledge of the INEC boss? #INECMustHuntTheCulprits @CDDWestAfrica@cnnbrk @EUinNigeria pic.twitter.com/KCa1b4hzpT
