Nigeria At 55 : The Most Stylish First Ladies Naija Ever Had by Aminat508(f): 5:13pm On Oct 02, 2015
The Office of the First Lady in Nigeria might not be constitutional but the women who have been beside past rulers in this country would forever hold their place in our memories and Nigerian history.

From the very first First Lady Flora Azikiwe to the present Aisha Buhari, Nigeria has had beautiful, strong women supporting their husbands through their regime.

And some of those women took extra care to ensure they were never going to be forgotten.

With their impeccable style and brains that most young women in this generation envy, here are the women with the biggest styles we admire

Maryam Babangida




And despite the notoriety of her husband’s tenure, by the time it was over, Mrs Babangida had empowered millions of women in Nigeria.

Court shoes, Iro and Blouse and making Ankara trendy are some of the fashion trends credited to this woman.

Ladies and gentlemen, give it up for the woman who single-handedly changed the way the office of the First Lady was looked at.

Victoria Gowon


She became the First Lady years after her husband Yakubu Gowon became head of state. And this was because he only married years after he assumed the position and during the civil war (which history won’t forgive him for but hey, we’re here to discuss fashion trends this time).

Anyway, Oga Gowon brought Victoria into our consciousness and if old photos are to go by, she was one stylish woman

Stella Obasanjo


The former First Lady might have been dead for almost a decade (died late 2005) but we would forever remember her style and work.Known for her petite looks and afro, the beautiful First Lady did not only look effortlessly gorgeous in anything she wore, she also made her style quite influential.

Give it up for Mrs Obasanjo, the Queen of recent First Ladies.

Hajiya Turai Umar Musa iar'Adua

is the widow of former Nigerian President and former Katsina State Governor Umaru Musa Yar'Adua. She served as the First Lady of Nigeria from 2007 until the death of her husband, President Yar'Adua, on May 5, 2010
Patience Jonathan

A lot of Nigerians might have grown impatient with Patience’s bad grammar and her husband’s regime but there is no taking away the style this woman had while in OfficeNot one to have a bad makeup day or one to wear an unflattering traditional attire, Mrs Jonathan definitely had her style and owned it while she was First Lady


Aisha Buhari


Aisha Buhari might be trying to ensure she does not “over glorify” the office of the First Lady but she cannot stop us from swooning.

The current First Lady is stylish, beautiful and elegant.


This list won’t be complete until we talk about the one stylish woman that would have influenced the face of 90s fashion if she and her husband were given the chance.

And that woman is Kudirat Abiola
Kudirat Abiola

Perhaps if given the chance, this beautiful activist would have not just influenced a generation of women to be greater but would have been a fashion icon

Kudirat, the wife of Late MKO Abiola who famously fought for him while in prison is the biggest most fashionable First Lady Nigeria never had

Even in our homes have you noticed that anytime your mom stands by you especially when you're dad is about to unleash his nuclear warheads on you it will only take a few tiny voice from your mom to stop the entire Hiroshima that would have befallen you. grin

But what happens when your mom is the one reporting your misdeed to the old guard? - You're so done and your dad would be like : Next time tawai! You don't tawai! Listen tawai! To your mother tawai!!!! I will mangle you, I'll disown you and throw you outside . grin

That was toto beating you to stupor . cheesy

Everyday I pray to God to give me a wife like PEJ. A woman with a strong will, brave as a lion, fearless, soft on the outside and hard as steel on the inside yet so emotional and loving. A kind beautiful woman full of grandeur. My mama peace. I love you . My regards to the father of true democracy in Nigeria, Dr GEJ
