this is lovely atleast better than that agbada (flowing gown) wearing type this shows his high level of exposure in the international scene

You're talking like someone who hates Nigerian culture. GW Bush wears suits and he's still the worst US president ever.

Robert Mugabe wears suits as well

While I like the fact that at least he looks smarter than ever on this ocassion, it amounts to nothing what he wears whether suit or agbada.

No be suit or agbada Nigerians go chop, he should be more serious than that.

which one is the dude??

THE SECOND MAN FROM THE LEFT

suit or agbada does not make a man, rather what he got to offer.
Afterall na one man tie wrapper for there, does that make him not acceptable internstionally.
Indian men go about with there gele anywhere, the arabian sheikhs go about in their regalia so try to appreciate your very own culture, and not just hating unreasonably

That our culture, let them wear anything they feel like.
Suit is not meant for Africans

C'mon guys, u have to give it to the man. Yar'adua really looks 9ce in the pix and presents naija in a very different light,

My respect for the guy grows every day

Legendary:

You make laugh . So its about dressing now abi na dress go give us light, repair our roads, bring sanity to the niger delta, spur development to mention a few on the very long to-do-list.

Abegi make we hear word jo!!

u better shut your mouth those problems u mentioned has long being in existence before yaradua, moreover u never knew what he went there for maybe it is just for economic purpose of partying purpose u just open urmouth like aligator vommitting all sorts

what we are saying here is that he looks nice abi u want him to write it allover his body that nigeria is having huge probs. where ever he goes

dumb repy 

handbags!!!

YA looks like any other dude in suit. don't know if he's got the image and persona to go with it though.

Are you really sure?

I thought Agbada/Babariga wearing is Arabic culture that africans copied after conversion to Islam.

Did you ever see or read about  the ancient  Pharaoh's in Babariga/Agbada or any other ruler of the ancient African Empires in such dress before the advent of Islam.

How about an A for effort? Hopefully, next time the aides will make sure
that he wears a dark suit and it is buttoned before he steps out into the public.

That will love our culture doesn't mean we should be ignorant of everything else
around us. The Western suit is THE most accepted formal clothing item for men
around the world (last time I checked, Nigeria is still a part of the world). One can
be an African leader and still wear a good suit.

I think the first lady looks great! - a little chest ain't kill no body. If the husband
is comfortable with it, who the hell is any of us to question the role of religion
and how she should dress? I believe they are both more than competent to make
that decision.

It is refreshing to see a Nigerian president with a suit - and not that "outfit" that
simply looks out of place in a sea of suits at events overseas. Maybe, just maybe
lets hope a smarter appearance will lead to a smarter governance.

I dey roll 4 ground with laughter

I maen no matter what they wear, we don't care

i think the President has been touring Nairaland
You guys have complained about him wearing babariga
