  • The reporter was well out of order......We need constructive journalism and not malicious reporting...The guy came across like he's got beef...........Get professional mate!

  • the journalist got it wrong....but yes Mr Maduekwe too should have shown superior leadership which he failed to show...so he fails too

  • Typical boorish behavior. And he is the Minister of Foreign affairs? - right! He's the sort of visionary the country needs to move forward.

  • Ignoramus!!!

  • professionally the reporter scored zero because his question was asked in a very negative manner. However, i think Ojo is a complete ignoramus who just got himself trapped in the situation and made himself sound so so foolish and uneducated. He could have chosen his word carefully and pretended he didnt feel insulted. he could have made the reporter feel stupid with somthing like this: "pls do not take this personal.i can understand ur grievance but remember im only here in official capacity"

  • Is this Maduekwe educated at all?

  • THIS GUY IS A DISGRACE. DO THIS GUYS GO THROUGH A SCREENING PROCESS

  • My take is that the reporter asked a stupid question, whether knowingly or unknowingly, he was trying to ridicule and undermine Ojo Maduekwe. I also think that Ojo Maduekwe was stupid enough to not answer the question diplomatically but flipped instead.

  • I mean Ojo Maduekwe is not a good man but there is lack of professional know how on the part of the reporter.....Again listen to him answer the second question...He is trying to separate himself from Presidency while he is appointed not elected by the Presidency.....and later he flip flopped,saying that he was appointed by the president..this is the problem with Nigeria,the Ministers don't know that they are just an advisers to the President.

  • What is the name of the reporter in this interview and who does he work for? He is a disgrace. The minister is right: He is miserable. Where did he study communications?
