^^benin city.
don't make you strike your name from the roll. lol!

wait, why is this fish tail wiggling around in my peppersoup? barman, bring me two more Gulder so I can think clearly.

i've got one for sale. i'm in benin. let me know what it's worth to you.

gdmorning Femmy, please i'd like to know what it'd cost to land a htc desire or htc incredible (if you can lay your hands on one), and what kind of time frame we may be looking at. if you can't get either of thses, pls give me quotations for any of the more recent htc models. thanks.

This topic is both braindead and malicious.
Let us put it all in context
1) I think the interview was meant to be conducted in a relaxed, conversational format hence the proximity between Christiane and Goodluck. His posture was accordingly relaxed.

2) His errors were hardly noticeable. Ms. Amanpour didn't seem like she had any difficulty in comprehending his answers. I watched the entire interview, and read the transcript. His message was clear.

3) He was being asked tough questions by a seasoned interviewer. Considering the uncertain political climate back home, the specter of the Cabal, and so on, he had to be deft, and tactful. He managed to achieve this while articulating his agenda in very lucid terms.

4) Please what has his accent got to do with anything? I've read comments that suggest that 'the northern accent is better than the southern accent'. By what metrics did you arrive at that conclusion? People have also mentioned Ojukwu, and Wole Soyinka as having clear 'Nigerian' accents. What is a clear Nigerian accent please? Ojukwu's accented is discernably Oxbridge-lite. Soyinka's accent has an unmistakably British aspect. Maiatama Sule's accent is a mix of Northern Nigerian and English public school.

4) The bigot who made the basest tribalistic generalizations about people from places such as Warri and Port Hacourt should go and sit next to the brainwashed Anglophile who posted something about Jonathan's traditional attire no being Western or Presidential enough, because it is not a business suit.

5) I think it was a good outing for the Acting President and I hope does even better in future interviews while proudly maintaining his accent.

It's a wonderful adventure beginning with the fleshy bits at the end of the fish head, then bending back layers of bones to reveal tasty slabs to enclosed flesh. there are also juicy bits of flesh to be sucked off the bones.

then you find yourself at the center of the fish head, and you crack the suckah to get at the brain.

you do all this, sit back pleased with yourself as you look at the havoc you've wreaked and you take a good long swig of your favourite lager.

pure bliss.

true, let's wait and see.
@frosbel: how much appeasement did the appointment on General Ironsi's son to the Ministry of Defence bring to the Ibos?
all this ethnocentric insistence on certain portfolios takes us in only one direction: backwards.

how can you appoint a recent presidential aspirant to the post of NSA?
Dr. Goodie this makes no sense at all. Especially at this moment when we are dealing with multiple, critical security issues.

i just pity the people he's supposed to be representing.
what a waste of legislative space and resources.

this is a half ars'ed topic

@ayettymama: no b beer parlour?
come sef, r u a waitress or em, entertainment?

una well don o!
barman giv me one gulder and half pot of fish peppersoup. i will pay with my Transcorp share certificate.

some of the comments on this thread have got me wondering what people really consider 'world peace' to be.

yeah that was a jackass move by Mr. West.
Obama knows what's up.

besides he has done nothing about Darfur in his 9 months in office. the AU force is begging for helicopters, al bashir is still a free man, and the genocide continues.
this is such a pig-headed move by the Nobel committee.

@Mzumbo: going by your illogic, contributing to peace in a part of the world (i.e within a country) is not the same as contributing to world peace abi?

this is both premature and wrong on so many levels.
if i were Obama, i'd reject this award because intensifying drone attacks in Pakistan, pouring more troops into Afghanistan, and tacitly supporting coups in South America do not seem likes steps that [promote world peace.
