It’s not often that a broadcast interview by a diplomat wows listeners, but a recent conversation involving the United States Ambassador to Nigeria, James F. Entwistle, is causing a buzz – and winning applause.

Pidgin or broken English is the popular lingua franca in West Africa. The patois cuts across Nigeria, the continent’s most populous nation, which is home to hundreds of local languages, making it easier for millions of Nigerians from different parts of the country to communicate.

PDP Accuses CBN Gov Of Giving APC N1bn

Sanusi-Lamido-Sanusi-1109.jpg - Sanusi-Lamido-Sanusi-1109.jpg

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has accused the suspended Governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), Mallam Sanusi Lamido Sanusi, of financial recklessness and partisanship in his administration of the central bank, and is therefore calling for a detailed forensic audit of all the accounts and financial activities of the CBN from 2009 till date.

In a statement issued by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh, yesterday, PDP alleged that there was sufficient evidence to show that states controlled by the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its chieftains had benefitted from the financial recklessness of the suspended governor.
