This is a true story from the Nigerian
Embassy in US !!!
A few years ago , a Nigerian Minister [4 got his
name ] was given some Basic English
conversation training before he visits
Washington and meets president Barack
Obama…
The instructor told Mr Minister, when you
shake hand with President Obama, please
say ' how r u' .
Then Mr. Obama would say , 'I am fine , and
you?' Now, you should say ' me
too ' . Afterwards we , translators , will do the
work for you. '
It looks quite simple, but the truth is …
When minister met Obama, he mistakenly
said ' who r u ?' ( Instead of ' How r u?'.) 
Mr. Obama was a bit shocked but still
managed to react with humor :
'Well , I' m Michelle ' s husband , ha -ha …'
Then Omo Naija replied : ' me too , ha-
ha… . ' 
Then there was a long silence in the meeting
room… 
Post a reply if you love my post !
