Whistle Blow: Time Magazine admits accepting bribe from Nigerian President
Abuja – When Time magazine published its 2012 list of the 100 mot influential people in the world a lot of Nigerians were shocked to discover that Rihanna had made the list but not Nigerian Pastor T.B. Joshua.
Equally shocking was the inclusion of President Goodluck Jonathan on the list.
Some Nigerians pointed out that the list also included Syrian President Bashar Assad, North Korean Supreme Leader Kim Jong Un, and Taliban leader Mullah, making President Jonathan’s inclusion seem logical.
While Nigerians continue to seek therapy to deal with their president’s name appearing on the list, a whistle blower has revealed that President Jonathan may have paid for the privilege.
At least this is what said whistleblower has claimed on micro-blogging site twitter where Nigerian intellectuals discuss the politics of their Nation and insult their innocent president before attempting to set-P with one another.
