Blue Magic: 4k Nigerian Rulers

In America knocking knuckles is a normal thing, a form of rich greet d less privilege so that u don't hav contact with their whole hands or fingers,while in d Yoruba land, kneeling, bowing, lying down (dobale) is tradition and has been used as a form of showing respect while greeting since time immemorial ,ok? Don't always find lope holes to nail ur country, it's d only one u hav, we no things may not seem right, but truthfully it is getting beta and will def become beta.

@op,its an election yr ind usa... prior to 2003 elections in nig, then presido OBJ walked around ketu freely and even had a long chat with an old woman. Other examples abound e.g Yar'adua smoking cigarete in his local mallam kiosk, Rochas of Imo, Adams of Edo etc etc

Our leader too do it when they need votes. The same way obama is doing it. Politicians are d same everywhere.

Yep! That's the blue prison uniform. Amosun granted state pardon/amnesty to prisoners (including a 75 year old man) in January (to mark his birthday). I would have posted the story, but I don't want Pyguru to ban me again.

i disagree with, it is not when elections come they interact with the citizenry. It is a known fact that london mayor Borris Johnson takes the tube and even after coming out pedals a bicycle to work. We all know that David Cameron rides a bicycle to the parliament. It's not like they are holed in one rock we don't know the location or one legislative quarters like that. Even the white house is open for touring, i mean we all know what the oval office looks like.

By the way, Ojo Madueke was insulted when he started cycling to FEC meetings and advised Nigerians to take up cycling (most common complaint. . . "He's trying to take us back to the stone age!"

Obama & wife show biz couple

obama playing politics....

Why do you think such thing can happen here? When our president dey burget 1 billion for feeding Alone with 5 cookers

More Occurences. . .Especially as the Elections draw near. No be "Obama" again. . .

But Nonetheless, it's an impressive feat. but don't imagine it'll happen in Nigeria - at least not with the present set of leaders.

If they ease themselves in Dubai, and rest after a day's job in Germany. . . you'd think they'd stop by the Local Tantalizers?

We actually dont follow brit trends in many of our general lifestyle esp governance in nig, we ar more comfy looking up to the yanks... A nigerian politician will not go to work on bike or pub trans, not saying its right but we look up to the yanks and they dont go to work on bikes... As for Aso rock tour, you also have in mind that we have security challenges in nigeria and allowing a section of aso rock to tourists cud tripple bh bombings and oda kinda menace around the seat of power. We shud be fair wen comparing our nascent democracy to dat of established countries. We have leaders dat interact with the populace freely and others that simply do the oga/servant style (God is watching them all HD)

US President's cavalcade

Rochas Pushing truck..




And my personal favorite.. Obasanjo drinking garri..

These things depend on local threats and circumstances. For example, Marine One (the helicopter) and Cadillac One are airlifted to whatever part of the world the US President is in.

When George W Bush visited Spain, they airlifted the helicopter from the US to Spain so that he could go to the Spanish PM's farm by helicopter. All these at government expense.

our leaders do it sometimes.i bumped into a senator buying garri at lokoja some months ago

Una need to get a life - everything America is commended - everything African is condemned.

Y'all still feel the White man's supremacy to una. Dang!

I agree with you, the brits life is conservative and boring but even d yanks we copy are lavish but not reckless. Most of their politicians may not use the bus or train but they still take the taxi even some of their richest men take the taxi to meetings, and if they are not you hardly see them in a convoy maybe with a driver n probably an orderly. It is in Ng you'll see a governor with almost 20 vehicles in his convoy with mopol, civil defence,sss,soldiers all following him. The day i saw Dimeji Bankole(when he was still speaker) ehn i thought the world was coming too an end, at first we were hearing siren then we saw two power bikes about three mins later we saw an empty 30 seater bus on which was written "the speaker federal house of reps abuja" after which different vehicles followed. So my point is even the usa we copy the president's convoy doesn't get followed by anybody else except the men of the secret service.

My bro do you know how many assasination threats the us president receives in a year? We can rightly say the threats other world leaders receive combined per annum is not up to the those the us president does.
And guys/gals us is the most threatened country in the world, apart from internal security threats what of the external ones and if their leaders can still behave like that then big ups to them. Did u see Yar'adua or have you seen Jona in any store in Abuja before? i know some pple will say Ng is not safe is why, but is that my fault.
P.s we are only being challenged by internal security issues, what about when we start getting external ones. Let us not mince words and give kudos to those its due.

Wondering, will I get banned if I publish my article on the US President's motorcade?

Back to what I was going to say. My first experience was during Canada '87. The Golden Eaglets qualified for the final of the U-17 world cup for the 2nd time in a row (after China '85). The semi-final victory over Italy was shown in the middle of the night. After the final whistle (around 2am or there about) General Babangida walked out of Dodan Barracks, accompanied by only 2 guards (well, we could only see 2 guards) and started shaking hands with people on Obalende Road (note, he was not a politician and he was not contesting any election).

Governor Fashola plays football at Campos Square almost every sunday.

By the way, Ojo Madueke was insulted when he started cycling to FEC meetings and advised Nigerians to take up cycling (most common complaint. . . "He's trying to take us back to the stone age!"

Why won't he be insulted when we have no reliable means of transport and our transport minister opens his mouth to say we all should go buy bicycles forgetting that there are no good roads not to talk of pedestrian walk ways or bicycle lanes. She we go dey ride bicycle for express? And in london the bicycles are at different points for hire not the type of rubbish maduekwe was proposing. I hope you know he had an accident on his way to one of the fec meetings on his bicycle.

Oh yeah, I almost forgot. In the '80s many people told me they saw General Babangida in a 5 series BMW, driving himself without any escorts. I didn't believe them until the navy guy told me his story.

My friend the navy guy was on sentry go @ the gate of navy base (I can't remember exactly, but I think it was Apapa). At night a BMW 5 series drew up in front of the gate. "Who goes there", my friend shouted. "The C in C" came the reply. Navy guy moved closer to the car and saw IBB and Murtala Nyako (Head of State and Chief of Naval Staff). There were no escorts. He only saw the two of them in the car!

Years later, IBB said in an interview, that, when he was Head of State, he usually drove himself to Otta to see General Obasanjo.

Yeah, that's what I thought. I expected people to campaign for cycle lanes to be built, etc. But the complaint was, "he wants to take us back to the stone age", "how do you want me to leave my car and ride bicycle", "this isn't the 1950s, we should be moving forward not backwards". I expected people to push him to take his plan to the next level, not that the plan should be abandoned.

This rather depicts the failure of government rather than any service to citizens. What is a governor/citizens doing pushing trailer(vehicles) when there should be towing vehicles to take care of occurences like this.

There has never been a coup 'de etat in the US, yet what happened to Murtala when he was on his way to work?

What happened to Dora Akunyili? What happened to Olusegun Osoba in 1992?

I already told you that I saw Obasanjo @ Mr Biggs and at the market. You've also seen on this thread a pic of Rochas buying corn. Remember Marwa and the akara/killer beans story?
