His last Tweet was on September 25th and it reads, 'Oh well, let bygones be bygones'.
"Stanley Nwabia, what is the pathway to securing a resilient future for your family?"
Me: That time when rain was falling, I take umbrella outside. I come and see plenty people inside rain. But plenty breeze started blowing, it come and spoil my umbrella. So I come and go inside

Stanley Nwabia was a potent voice against the Buhari tyranny. Crude as his methods were, they kept the government in check. He will be missed.
