Blogging about Pop idol west Africa like everyone else...so i nicked it off naijablog, sue me!

So i'm nicking the story off naijablog, i'm sure he won't mind. Got this link to the west African idol's page from there and it was very revealing. Of course, i totally dig Syntyche....perhaps for all the obvious reasons. Perhaps i should not go into the shoddiness of the presentation or how i think the judges talk too much/ waste too much time. More importantly, i think the auditions betray the highly partriachal/reversed ageist society that is Nigeria and then the African continent at large. Still, i suppose this presents an opportunity to an already dissapointed youth....i will keep an eye on it!
