Hey, look, they probably think that “Derbyshire” is a laff riot, and that’s

fine. My all-time favorite: The Rev. Canaan Banana (Zimbabwe).

Runners-up: Oginga Odinga (Kenya), Sir Abubaker Tafawa Balewa (Nigeria),

Omar Bongo (Gabon), Gnassingbe Eyadema (Togo), Ndabaningi Sithole

(Zimbabwe). Honorable mention to Mobutu Sese Seko Kuku Ngbendo Wa Za Banga,

which translates as “head rooster with access to all the hens in the

henhouse” (the former Zaire).
