What we are failing to mention is whether this man really wanted to be president, from all indications probably not. Regardless of his health issues, it is obvious that Mr. Yar'Adua is neither qualified nor willing to be a president. The man lacks any agenda and Nigerians are yet to see the positive effective of his rule of law initiative. It is apparent that the man is clueless and was placed in power by his predecessor in his selfish desire for an indirect third term.

Gloria please send me the link to some of those close up pictures because I am still not convinced. But what about her hair? Why didn't she do something more elegant with it? It was too plain jane. I have seen her more done up than that. Ms Omo-T didn't see this comment "I will like to read Misi's comment here :) " LOL! You know me I must say sumtin.

Upholstery is a good way to describe the jacket. I didn't like the evening gown either. She looked like a big bird. I normally like her dressing, I wonder what happened. She should have done something more elegant with her hair too - it was too boring.

Including people who elected them – this is very hard for any leader to promise considering in a democracy the majority of the country voted for them.
I would have added honesty – having an honest and transparent leader is something Africans are lacking. Accountability a leader that will be accountable to its people and willing to create basic infrastructures. A leader that will create a system that works not just a utopia that is unattainable. Most importantly a leader who is interested in the development of the country and not someone who is just there for his/her own personal gain.
Oh congrats to Obama - yesterday history was rewritten.

Respect - Demanding respect is the African culture. The belief is once they are older or in a position of power then respect is a right that comes with the position and everyone else is at their mercy.
Inclusive - Nepotism is a serious African problem but it does happen in America too – Senator’s earmarks or “wish list” is a good example of it.
Change – African leaders are not the only ones unwilling change. Most people are resistant to change. Example why do you think the American people voted for Bush again after they had seen signs from his first term that he was a disaster? - Because they were reluctant to change, they didn’t want a new person changing things.

The pilot was amazing. This was truly a miracle.

Wow. In a country where unemployment is high, this is catastrophic.

Thank you Dr. Mukwege for caring for these women, I pray the Lord will reward you handsomely. I see He already is, you deserve that award and more. The selfless man that he is, is using the award money to provide more facilities for the women he is helping – can you imagine? God bless his heart. We should all learn from the spirit of selflessness from this great man. Stories like this just break my heart and make me extremely mad.

It is insane to think that people are still being isolated because they are accused of being a witch. It is not fair at all.

I hope we will get to see some of the show on AfricanLoft.
