Person of the Year
I’ve been looking at all the end of year lists - the nominees anyway and Time has JK Rowling, Al Gore, Barack Obama, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, Condoleeza Rice in the top 5. People has its celebrity list, and assorted magazines will have their nominees based on their readers’ tastes and perversions.
So, help a blogger out and send me some names. It can be someone based in Africa, or not. As long as the person significantly influenced events in Africa. So please let me know in the comments box
- Name of the person
- Why you are nominating them
Please circulate this to as many people as possible as it would be great to see who the power brokers and leaders are from your perspective.
Please nominate someone.
Don’t let the terrorists win 
I would nominate Ahmedinejad - LOL no reason other than he has the coolest name in the whole world - and he is kinda cute, and raises hell wherever he goes.
Ok so I am jesting - or am I?
Let me go think
How you sweet?
