International Magazine Forbes Apologizes For Goodluck Jonathan Spelling Error (See Post)

An American business magazine ‘Forbes’ has apologize for making a serious goof with the name of President Goodluck Jonathan.


 In an article published on the magazine’s website (forbes.com) on Friday, February 21, 2014 titled ‘As Sanusi Is Suspended, Is Nigeria Still The World’s New Investment Darling?‘ it erroneously referred to Jonathan as ‘President Johnson’.

The error was left on the website for over 24 hours until a Nigerian Ebuka Obi-Uchendu spotted the error and alerted the authorities.

‘We have now corrected the error. Thanks for calling it to our attention‘, @Forbes tweeted @Ebuka.

Forbes have not only effected the changes, but left a permanent update on the article page detailing the error earlier made.

‘A previous version of this post incorrectly referred to Nigerian President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan as President Johnson. The post has been corrected’, the update reads.
