Yet. . . Nigeria is still a socio-ecomomic GHETTO!
Of what use is this power? To gossip and loot? grin

One of these individuals in any civilized corner of this world would have truly made a difference.
Sheeeeeeeeeeeesh.

We are talking of the capability of their decision to break or make Nigeria.If Buhari for one tells Northern muslims to do even the most stupid of things,I tell you they will gladly do it.They see him as some kind of god over there and I tell U̶̲̥̅̊ nt even the sultan commands such respect from this people.

Why is Governor-General of the Ijaw nation Chief Dr Diepreye Alameshigha not on the list. He is GEJ's mentor and most respected Aso rock guest.

Nice trial,I'll google τ̣̣ђё economic importance of the new names.However most of these people ® not even as influential as Tompolo,Boyloaf or Asari Dokubo not to even talk of closing down the economy of Nigeria for a second when they decide to MOBILIZE people.We are talking of people whose actions can shake the stability of Nigeria.
Re: 15 Most Powerful People In Nigeria by damoobaba: 12:50pm On Sep 15, 2012
I think Emeka Anyaoku & Wole Soyinka should be on this list.
