Africans are in love with him because he has an African pedigree: a Kenyan father and a humble, poor background. He is very well liked in Nigeria. You see people wearing t-shirts with his name and photograph, and some call their children Obama. When George Bush invaded Iraq people were very angry, but for the first time ever people are now in love with America. Obama is a saviour. . . . . .
If George Bush had said “Africa arise”, we’d have said, “What?” But Obama is like the Messiah. We’re in awe and we’ll listen. . . . . .
