The United States President Barack Obama, who was awarded Nobel Peace Prize in 2009, has said he is still not sure why the prestigious prize was bestowed on him.

Mr. Obama (55). who will leave White House in January next year, suffered indignities of a job interview as he was questioned about his qualifications by Stephen Colbert in ‘The Late Show’.

Asked by Colbert to list any relevant awards or qualifications, Mr. Obama replied, “I have almost 30 honorary degrees and I did get the Nobel Peace Prize.” “Really, what was that for?,” enquired Mr. Colbert. “To be honest, I still don’t know,” he jokingly responded.

Colbert also asked more loaded questions, such as where he was born, and a fruit related query.

“I have two choices for you here,” Colbert said. “Would you care for an extra fiber nutrient bar, which has travelled to more than 100 countries, or this shriveled tangerine covered in golden retriever hair, filled with bile that I wouldn't leave alone with the woman I love?”

“I think I will go with the fiber nutrient bar."
