Obama came to Nigeria for an official visit. He was with Goodluck on the balcony at Aso Rock. Suddenly, NEPA took light all over Abuja .
Obama turned to Goodluck and said: "I thought you said you were making progress, how come you still have power cuts? This is appalling!"
Goodluck was ashamed and angry, but didn't say anything. He just kept fuming throughout the rest of Obama's visit.
Six months later, Goodluck went to Washington to see Obama .
In the Evening they went to the White House balcony to have some drinks and discuss. While they where there, Goodluck looked around the city and was surprised to see an area that was dark: there was a power cut in that part of town. Goodluck was happy!
He shouted to Obama: "You came to my country and insulted me on our power system, see your own now? You people also have power cuts here in Washington ! Shame on you!!" Goodluck was very happy!
Obama frowned, looked at the area very well, called one aide to ask him where that area was. The aide whispered in Obama's ear, and Obama burst into laughter.
Goodluck was puzzled. He asked Obama : "Are you okay?" Obama finally managed to stop laughing long enough to point to the dark area and say:
"That's the Nigerian Embassy!!!!
