Have a  Nigerian president ever worn suit. I'm not talking of military suits but a normal suit. I know it is the least of our problems but when wud a Nigerian president wear suit.

Agbada is a three piece suit and that is good enough. In as much as the wearers are evil.

I may be the 1st,mark your 2015 calendar

The day an American president or UK Prime minister wear Agbada to their parliament, ours will wear suit.

@Okada_man

Gbam! More grease to your elbow brother. Our traditional wears are more flamboyant and our leaders should keep flying them high.

Sometimes I wonder, why we Africans are too obsessed with almost everything western.

hahahah!! nice question they no be  gentleman at all

Fashion,just like religion and senseless education is part of the mental enslavement.

Yes, our presidents wear suit but it happens once in a blue moon. I have seen Baba Iyabo in suit as well as past presidents and head of states.

OBJ at the UN in 2005.  

No suit go fit hide them pot bellies

They should call me to supply them slimming capsule from Green world.

Suit makes you behave like a gentleman and think right and address people politely
Agbada makes you behave like a "Nigerian" even on NL.
That is the reason our presidents and Senetors behave

At an older age, eating pounded yam, amala, or fufu on a daily basis without exercise is not the appropriate diet for someone who wants to look good in a suit. A suit cannot hide an 11-month pregnancy, and most of our leaders are pregnant with quadriplets. Just joking. All jokes aside, I don't think a Nigerian president should wear suit, for a suit represents European culture. Our presidents should wear attires native to our country, for they are an ambassador to our country anytime they attend foreign meetings; and the last time I checked, I don't see western leaders wear agbada.

Sometimes i wonder whether some nairalanders are for real, like those that think oyinbo suit will be cool for african leaders.

The suit will make them think better.

how will d wear suits,wen all of dem get bald head

[size=15pt]I still don't know why our presidents always dress like a clown, how can a president wear sleeping gown to UN meeting while other presidos wear suit, i just don't get it[/size]

I cant imagine myself wearing western clothes in nigeria with the exception occasional jeans and shorts. It will make me look and feel dum.b if i run into oyinbos dressed like them in my own country

An agbada can conceal what is not meant for all eyes to see while a suit cannot abi u think say na 'ojuboro' dem dey take collect pikin for 'ekuro' hand

@sammaranno pls can u explain how suit make ppl think better

Jonathan in suit

Mugabe and Charles Taylor wore suits,so did Saddam Hussein Dressing formal means nothing,I'd rather they have their focus on their job and not looting,pilfering public funds,imprisoning political opponents and implementing real policies that affect the citizens lives, not Agbada/Sleeping bag/Suit/Skirt

Africans like in most things always fail to see the moral and mental degradation of trying to copy others. They dont see anything bad living without original initiatives and creations. Why must any african wear suit with tied neck like one on the way to gallow in the heat of african sun? Colo mentality.

Dressing is one of the ways to uphold one's identity, which as well tells where one is coming from. Through their dressings, our presidents are merely telling the world that they are Nigerians and proud ones for that that matter. What is bad is not their dressings but their bad and corrupt minds,

why should they?

they wear parachute

Honestly, GEJ looks like a modern President in suite.

Those agbadas, abeti-ajas, etc do not make you think

Its high time African Presidents stop being ceremonial Head Of States
