mikeansy: And some people would probably criticise the leaders if they wore a suit; imagine some market women trying to relate to such a figure as opposed to someone dressed in something they are more familiar with. So why make this an issue? |

Sky Blue: I think cicero is right. We are wallowing in ignorance and arrogance over nothing. Celebrating our culture in world head of states events as if no one else in the world has a culture even though there is no infrastructure or good life to support our arrogance. I think we need to get serious. If we were a serious country may be our gowns would have been a symbol of achievements, but right now those gowns are a symbol of our unique corruption and lacklustre attitude to everything. Some of them even look like Pyjamas and betrays a leader who would rather be sleeping than leading.

mikeansy: I would reply with the same response since I think it is completely relevant to the shaky justifications you are attempting to use. Sky Blue: |

mikeansy: This is the slave mentality,the 'oyinbos' have imbibed in Africans. . . 'You were 'cave men ' before we found you. Mungo Park 'discovered' the river Niger,despite the fact that a lot of trade had been going on in that area for many years. I remember asking my dad the same question many years ago-what were we wearing before the white men came ? ![]() [size=38pt]MY FRIEND GET OUT OF THAT SLAVE MENTALITY !!![/size], our ancestors wore proper clothes. . .the white man did not invent iro & buba. . . .neither did they invent aso-oke,from my part of the country. The hat is wearing is not a 'bolar' hat by the way. Wake up & stop all these nonsensical comments ! |

These politicians are very wonderful people, i like the way they rigmarole around simple questions. E.g is Iwu Credible? Ans =4 Sentences. Lol |

chidichris:you raised an important issue here.nigerians are only sentimental and interested in tribal issues.jonathan as an acting president granted an interview to a tv station like cnn;displaying total ignorant of not being allowed access to yaradua while religious have had access to him and you guys are busy attending to highly irrelevant issues.jonathan is more or less a figure head trying to find legitimacy for his kangaroo government.there is nothing special about granting interview to amanpour,fyi,robert mugabe has once granted an interview to her.success of a govt doesnt need to be advertise on tv,jonathan should make use of the little time available to him to make a noticeable impact. |

VERY IMPRESSIVE RESPONSES FROM JONATHAN. HE HAS SHOWN THAT HE IS SMART, SMARTER THAN THEY. |

illusion2: You should have asked your pops if we have caves in Africa to live in.( this is not to insult you by the way) To clairfy. The southern ethnic groups of nigeria did have attires but they were minimal in body covering as it would be ridiculous to cover our entire bodies when we had to deal with the scorching heat and temperatures of the rainforest belts. In contrast our nothern savannah neighbours adorned relatively more clothing which is why til today much of our fashion sense still eminates from northern peoples |

Traditional attire hasn't stopped India from developing or being respected.

Singhs gear above is not much different from Uncle Joe's. Perhaps those who are arguing against his attire would be happy if it was given an inner lining, making it look cleaner lined and project power. Thats something for our fashion designers to learn. |
Re: I Won’t Force Myself To Meet Yar’adua, Says Jonathan ! by Nobody: 6:37pm On Apr 14, 2010 |
Beaf: Beaf is the safari suit being worn by Singh any cultural attire in India? Please tell me which He used to wear his cultural attire but he also seem to be mordenising and improvising |
Re: I Won’t Force Myself To Meet Yar’adua, Says Jonathan ! by Beaf: 6:46pm On Apr 14, 2010 |
mikeansy: It looks like a Safari suit but it isn't. Its called a Nehru jacket, here's a wikipedia except; The Nehru jacket is a hip-length tailored coat for men or women, with a mandarin collar, and modeled on the South Asian achkan or sherwani, an apparel worn by Jawaharlal Nehru, the Prime Minister of India from 1947 to 1964. However, unlike the achkan, which falls somewhere below the knees of the wearer, the Nehru jacket is not only shorter, but also, in all respects other than the collar, resembles the suit jacket. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nehru_Jacket We too, can clean up the lines of our traditional attire as I mentioned above and have befitting power dresses that have no foreign roots. |

Brilliant!!! Guess who is back?!!! I think Jaja of Opobo sorry Jaja of Nigeria is back!!! May he not end up like be4 (amen). I think he won't, considering d way he has handled Amar babe. That was exceptional. Good thinking, good direction I think he was similarly undermined like Fashola but now we know better, our prayers r getting answered Since he has stressed this power problem, I hope our internal foes - IBB and goons won't work against electricity availability to discredit him. I pray not. God pls disgrace them |
Re: I Won’t Force Myself To Meet Yar’adua, Says Jonathan ! by Dominoifet(m): 7:07pm On Apr 14, 2010 |
What matters most right now is d way the mind is dressed to give change we can believe in and not the body which also shouldn't be overlooked. |

I never knew a time would come that i would be excited about any Nigerian President, thank God that time has come God be with you GJ! and God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria!!! |
Re: I Won’t Force Myself To Meet Yar’adua, Says Jonathan ! by truly: 7:21pm On Apr 14, 2010 |
Let us face reality IBB can give more intelligent answers Nobody can doubt the brilliance of IBB for instance But that is not the issue Is IBB trustworthy? We should praise GJ when he performs And he has said that he will not contest unless he does Although, like Iwu, he will mark his own scripts |
Re: I Won’t Force Myself To Meet Yar’adua, Says Jonathan ! by Fhemmmy: 7:25pm On Apr 14, 2010 |
So if he is yet to see him, and only a medical doctor could tell the state of Yaradua's Health, how come Jonathan now sign a deal to allow Yaradua to continue treatment abroad? Are they forgetting that the money belongs to Nigerians? |
Re: I Won’t Force Myself To Meet Yar’adua, Says Jonathan ! by rebranded(m): 7:28pm On Apr 14, 2010 |
Fhemmmy: You want him to be held responsible for the death of the President?, plus i dont believe that story of signing anything What do you have against Goodluck Mr. i know you are for IBB |
Re: I Won’t Force Myself To Meet Yar’adua, Says Jonathan ! by Nobody: 7:30pm On Apr 14, 2010 |
Rebranded Did this interview clarify anything to you? Shebi I told you Jonathan has not made public his intentions on Maurice Iwu's future I won't be suprised if it goes either way. |
Re: I Won’t Force Myself To Meet Yar’adua, Says Jonathan ! by Fhemmmy: 7:31pm On Apr 14, 2010 |
rebranded: Another attack of Character, i am not for anyone, i am just for a better Nigeria. We have been lied to for years and just tired of the lies and games. Real all i have said about Jonathan and you will see i wish him the best and hope he will make the best of the chance he has now to make some changes, cos history will judge them all |
Re: I Won’t Force Myself To Meet Yar’adua, Says Jonathan ! by rebranded(m): 7:32pm On Apr 14, 2010 |
@mikensy yeah i remember you said it, but i still believe if he doesnt remove him people will be disappointed and nothing else he does will be applauded |
Re: I Won’t Force Myself To Meet Yar’adua, Says Jonathan ! by Fhemmmy: 7:34pm On Apr 14, 2010 |
rebranded: He already said that whoever does not perform would be sent away, and the good ones will be kept, so this means that if he kept Iwu, he see what we dont see, so time will tell. |

Re: I Won’t Force Myself To Meet Yar’adua, Says Jonathan ! by rebranded(m): 7:48pm On Apr 14, 2010 |
Fhemmmy: @ Fhemmy I remember you saying you will vote for IBB instead of GJ, I agree everyone has their vote and opinion, but it bothers me that if you are in for a better Nigeria you would go for IBB?? |
Re: I Won’t Force Myself To Meet Yar’adua, Says Jonathan ! by Kobojunkie: 7:55pm On Apr 14, 2010 |
rebranded: Is Jonathan better? Do we have records to show this at this point? AT least we have records showing that IBB is probably not the best for the country, and this is based on facts. Are we not getting ahead of ourselves here asking for votes for a man who we have yet to see do anything worth judging him as a leader by? |

Re: I Won’t Force Myself To Meet Yar’adua, Says Jonathan ! by Beaf: 8:28pm On Apr 14, 2010 |
rebranded: Very true. Quite a few people don't know how evil IBB is. There is no way we can compare Jonathan and IBB, its like oil and water. . . .Did I hear that IBB lives in a 50 room mansion? What does a normal human need 50 rooms for? |

He doesn't have d pedigree so nothing he says would b credible. I don't think he can stand on d same intellectual pedestal like Lucky Joe. It is not how long but how well. It is not in d flashing of gap tooth or in the reteirated abundance of insha allah. I say again of Jonathan those responses gives a measurable depree of confidence we can believe in. |
Re: I Won’t Force Myself To Meet Yar’adua, Says Jonathan ! by Fhemmmy: 8:41pm On Apr 14, 2010 |
rebranded: I never had and will never have a problem with Jonathan. You shd have asked why i would vote for IBB instead of Jonathan. . . . . A devil known is better than the unknown, and as far as i am concerned, i am yet to see any difference. Jonathan is yet to declare what side he is, all he has been doing is talking, let us see some action. A man that fired people and just wasted money to hire them back? what was the use of the whole fiasco od dissolving the FEC? However, i am willing to wait and see how it will all act out, so i am open minded about him and all these |
