That's right! Christiane Amanpour, one of the world's most honored broadcast journalist must be digging deep at the moment as she gets ready to interview the President of Nigeria, Goodluck Jonathan.

Confirming what seem like a rumour, she tweeted on her twitter page @camanpour
"My interview with President Goodluck Jonathan of #Nigeria will air at 2100 & 2300 local Nigerian time on Wednesday night. @cnni"

Known for her bluntness and brutal confrontation, the interview tonight is said to be a moment of revelation as President Jonathan goes under the pressure of the prolific CNN broadcaster.

Many people has shown concern about the impact of the interview on Nigerians, and to observe some of Amanpour's tweets - "After Mali and Algeria, can #Nigeria get a grip on its own Islamic militant group? I'll ask NIGERIAN PRESIDENT GOODLUCK JONATHAN Wednesday!"

One might be quick to say that she's getting Mr. President ready for the hot seat. Whichever way it is, many are of the opinion that the credibility of Amonpour cannot in any way permit a staged interview.

Reactions all around the world affirms that tonight is truly going to be a hot seat moment as they tweet

@nnamdiarea
Christine Amanpour messes with Presidents who have 6 times Pres. Jonathan's intelligence and exposure level. This won't end well o...

@TheBlackHermit
Amanpour is going to eat Jonathan alive.

@Moh_Nah
GEJ won't have it easy with Christiane Amanpour but,seeing as she's already stating her questions...

Even as i patiently await the broadcast of this interview, it's obvious that there will be answer to questions on the mind of Nigerians. Amonpour has been an expert in placing the bigwigs at the edge of their seat, is this gonna be any different?

2100 & 2300 local Nigerian time is the showdown.

Here's D-Explorer reporting for Nairaland Forum

Shey d interview qo chanqe 9ja situation?.....mtcheeeew...abeg make i hear word

Hmmm, GEJ go kalolo today, he better go with madam to break down some questions for bros.

seriously, I would'v loved to watch this. I can only imagine abati fidgeting........anyway roll up your sleeves president!

Very Brave of GEJ regardless of the outcome. You wanted him on Hardtalk but he's gone a level ahead, Now who's the wussie? Lets go there!

I doubt the discussion topics are going to be about the current state of affairs in Nigeria. I believe the interview will focused on the ongoing military exercise in Mali hence the reason why GEJ wants to interview

Jona in the one chance

The questions are going to be terrorism related, so he will have a sympathetic interview. If it is interview about the Nigerian condition, I will only conclude that he unwittingly just walked into a minefield.

i believe Christiane Amanpour is not going to give goodluck any problem.. she is not going to ask goodluck any good question but what will make goodluck look good.. that what i believe from her previous interview

no matter what ever goodluck say, majority of nigerian want him out as president. he has not be fair to majority. running bias govt. in allocation..

Isha Sesay was better asking the right question. Amanpour only made goodluck look good, by not asking right question the last time.

why is this picture, because what you people report does not tally with the people.

And how does the village nutter define "right questions"?

Can wait, to c d woman who aired Rwandan genocide.....

village nutter i laugh . i dont think you know i am smarter than goodluck which you want to interview. you underrate me..


so she aired Rwandan genocide. i see. then why as she not interview me to get the correct story..

O Lord! Give our president an hour Wisdom and intelligence for tonight's interview so as not to put this beloved country into shame. Thank you Lord!

E Don Be For Naija Be Dat Na!

^ You neva pray make you fit pass JAMB this year you dey pray for person.

I do hope the questions have been given to Mr. President ahead of time!

Gehn gehn!!!!! Action film

Let him carry madam dame patience too. Shes a comedian of english grammar

We should have known about this a little while ago, so we could send her probing questions, which she could draw a shortlist from + her own questions!!!!!

where is he going to get the intelligence from, you make me laugh.. why not ask him to show you his bank account..

miiraaj: O Lord! Give our president an hour Wisdom and intelligence for tonight's interview so as not to put this beloved country into shame. Thank you Lord!

Why are you panicking? GEJ is not crazy enough to do attempt a 'state of the nation' interview with Amanpour. The questions will be restricted to Terrorism. If this is not the case, I will be sitting with my hand on my head as my country's president is slammed repetitively until security walks in and takes the mic away from Ms Amanpour.

I wonder what her research team would have told her about GEJ before interview. SMH.

Well this is not the first time she is interviewing my presido and his excellency has no skeleton whatsoever,tonight is the night,you will all be amazed of his preparedness,he is a very intelligent man who approaches questions with utmost care and wisdom.

I just love GEJ,he is a father and a mentor indeed,little wonder everyone wants to be associated with him.

so NTA crew no fit do d interview? If I be GEJ I go fake ankel injury to victor mosses is giving me sleepless night so I no fit talk hoha

Somethimg to watch out for

Please which time exactly in Nigeria, I will like to watch it

you call me a village nutter ?? what are you going to call goodluck.. jungle nutter..

Yeee gbele o!!!! This will be better than watching Sanyeri in action . I hope Abati and Okupe are preparing their defences already.

musiwa12: where is he going to get the intelligence from, you make me laugh.. why not ask him to show you his bank account..

Your father must be wole soyinka abi

I felt insulted when one tweeter tweeted that she is 6x integent and exposed than my president, that is an insult to the whole nation an we never see that as nonsense. Well i don't blame him/her cos that is how we disrespect each other including our leaders
