Fotorama 45: My Trip With a USA President

When in 2007 I was privileged (that's what it is, considering the security sweep including background checks one has to go through and of course, one is responsible for all expenses incurred) to be accredited as a member of the media pool accompanying the then President of the United States of America; President George Bush, little did I know that I was also making history. I became the first Nigerian Journalist to be on a USA presidential trip (kindly verify and correct me if need be). The 8-day trip took us to 5 countries in Latin America (Brazil, Mexico, Colombia, Venezuela and Guatemala) amid tight security. The attention to detail that goes into planning and embarking on a trip with a USA President is unprecedented.
