Watch this video, and we dare you not to laugh. Try it!

The video is an example of how not to bluff.

The Lagos State Commandant of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corp (NSCDC), Obafaiye Shem, was all bombast as a guest on Channels Television’s breakfast programme, Sunrise Daily, two days ago. Then the easiest question that could be asked such a senior officer was asked him by the presenters: What is your organisation’s website address?

Simple question, right?

Well Mr. Shem, instead of stating categorically that he did not know the address, tried to divert attention from the question by raising something else, but the presenters were insistent; so he began to hem and haw, and still the presenters insisted. So Mr. Shem declared with the straightest face ever on television that the address was “www.nscdc”. That was all.

Kudos to the Channels TV presenters for keeping their cool and not bursting into uncontrolled laughter.

The correct address is www.nscdc.gov.ng

The video is below. Enjoy it or squirm.
