Nigeria's new president...Umaru Yar'Adua

I'm sure Nigerians, and people following the roller coaster politics in Nigeria and other African countries, have heard about the apparent new president of Nigeria...Yar'Adua.

He gained 70% of the vote but European Union observers say the elections were a "charade" and any administration that resulted would not have any legitimacy.

We all know the risk of political protests, which the oppositions are calling for, so please keep Nigeria in your prayers. And hopefully, soon enough, we all can move on to building Nigeria...and Africa as a whole.
