I stumbled upon this clip of Nigeria's supposed first lady trying to read a speech which had been prepared for her by her press office. I had heard rumours that Mrs Jonathan's reading skills are, to put it diplomatically rudimentary, but when i saw this clip i was in shock, how can we as a nation have a woman like this representing nigeria? The role of first lady of any nation is an important one in that it involves a lot of public speakign arrangements and photo calls, a first lady in my opinion should be refined and well groomed in speech, attitude and mannerisms. I feel totally embarrassed that this woman is going to be parading around the world as nigeria's first lady and i really think that the sight of this woman laboriously reading a speech in any public forum will confirm our postion in the world as a running joke of a nation.

CAN some1 pls tell me exactly what is wrong here now. This woman talks slowly in real life, so u dont expect her to read fast since it is not part of her.
U guys should say something else and stop criticizing her. She is kool!
no matter how incorrect ur time is, it will be correct twice a day.
