This list are based on my decision and on the following criteria
1. Many politians are directly attached to them
2. Many electorate are directly attached to them
3. Their movement from one party to the other will have a very great effect on the forth coming general election result.

The list is as follows in descending order
1. Bola Ahmed Tinubu
2. General Olusegun Obasanjo
3. General Muhammedu Buhari
4. T Y Danjuma
5. General Ibrahim Babangida
6. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan
7. Sule Lamido
8. Ibrahim Kwakwaso
9. Edwin clark
10. Bukola Saraki

Once again, the list is based on my decision and you are free to add or remove
Thanks

There is no single individual who have the kind of cult like follower-ship as GMB. 2011 he hurriedly set up CPC and without adequate finance and campaign he was able to muster over 12 million votes from across the country(He's neither an incumbent or a govt official). Like it or not. GMB is the most influential politician in Nigeria. No other politician can single handedly perform such feat...... I stand to be corrected.

So OP go do ya home work well well tongue

where Ameachi?...and baba is no longer a politician


Amaechi is not influential at the national level, though he enjoys a lot of sympathy in his struggles against the President and his hatchet men.

-Tom Ikimi and Chukwumerije. On the two or more parties that Chukwumerije has moved to, he won his election into the Senate.
-Grace Folashade Bent from Osun State won the election into the Senate in Adamawa state, her husband's state.

You no get talk... Ameachi is winning both presidential and governorship, I don't know of any other state
lafex:
I know that many people will be looking for amaechi's name but I don't put his name there because his influentiality comes as a result of dispute between him and Mr President and he is not even sure of winning his state.

Please delete bukola saraki from that least. That boy is unlike his father. He's too arrogant, stingy and non-Nigerian for my liking. He can't even communicate fluently in Yoruba. He's only morphologically similar with his dad but behaviorally, they are worlds apart.
I don't know what Edwin Clark is also doing on the list when Atiku is not there. OBJ is another overrated politician. He's never been a factor even in his own ward.

Can you please explain the bolded?

Are you one of the people who believe politicians must share money to the masses rather than delivering dividends of democracy which will allow you live a better life and get a fair shot at being successful rather than being spoonfed in the name of stomach infrastructure

All of those guys are useless yet influential.

Nigeria needs a third political party with bonafide principles and a younger, untainted leader like Donald Duke.

Not these clowns.

Without the Tinubu's political mastery, there would have been no APC, nor will it have been able to hold itself together.

Buhari has a lot of supporters up north, but without Tinubu throwing his weight behind him, Mr Jonathan will have enjoyed another easy ride to election victory in 2015.

if Chibuike Rotimi Amaechi is not there then you must have to make another list.
The man who led the glorious walk out of what today became APC.
The fearless lion of the tribe of Ubima.
The combined force of Joseph Mbu.Goodluck Jonathan.Nyesom Wike and Mama piss couldnt detract him.
A man of principle.
A detribalised Nigerian to the core.
A believer and a man who could stare death in the face anyday and anytime.
They call him a traitor here but i call him a fighter.
He is my Che Guevera.
God bless CRA.
