According to Bisi Olatilo (sycophant par excellence), "government apparatii were in attendance" at the wedding of Bola Tinubu's daughter. The Bisi Olatilo Show is crass car crash tv, so I watch it. The man is a great pretence in grandiloquence, butchering the English language willy-nilly. Of course he thinks him and his programme are the bee knees, when he is in essence a glorified autograph hunter for television รก la Dele Momodu.
Anyone who can constantly applaud Bola Tinubu for his "leadership", "vision", and all the other claptrap adjectives he comes up with, should be avoided like the plague. Or even given the plague. The plural of apparatus is of course apparatus, even though apparatuses is acceptable. But Mr Olatilo chooses to basque in his obviously supreme knowledge, not bothering to check the numerous dictionaries (or is that dictionarii) he probably owns.
I'll stop now, because I'm tempted to get verbally medieval... Apparently his offices were destroyed by a fire, so I should be nice.

Sycophant par excellence! Best description I ever heard about Olatilo...
He's always been that way- I always loathed his oiliness on radio many years ago
"The best lack all conviction and the worst are full of paasionate intensity"....Yeats said it eons ago and that is our story in Nigeria. Unfortunately, it is the bisi olatilo/dele momodus of this world who get on around here. Watching the bisi olatilo show is like having a tooth extracted...so i just don't bother.
sorry, "passionate".....
same with Mr gbola oba or bola oba something like that they speak the crappiest english! you should see him interview ibb ewwwwwww cheap praise singers!
Dami, Gbola Oba speaks the worst English have seen from a Jounalist of late.
I will strongly advise him to go for a course in communication.
Simple English make sense
