Its between Mariam Babangida and Stella Obasanjo. Both were top notch classy women.

Patience on the other hand na agbero. She was uncouth and unladylike. That made her popular for all the wrong reasons.

Mama peace was notorious, not popular.

If she isn't throwing grammatical bombs and bullets today, she will be busy bullying one governor or the other, or probably calling some group of people "born throway" undecided

She was such a huge comic relief and was instrumental to the electoral loss of her husband grin
This is how Nigerians fail exam. They asked who was popular whether rightly or wrongly anf you're telling us who has class and doesn't have class. kai.

@topic
Patience Jonathan is the undisputed champion as far as popularity is concerned. The second position goes to the likes of Maryam Babangida, Maryam Abacha and Stella Obasanjo in no particular order. But my favourite has to be Maryam Babangida.

When you are talking the most colorful first lady no one comes close to Maryam babangida, the woman who ensured that no any other woman was appointed as minister in ibb 's govt aside from that she brought glamour to the office of the first lady.

Many people don't know the different between popularity and performance. For popularity = mama peace. Stella for performance.

Maryam Babangida

She touched the lives of women (especially rural women) in wonderful ways. I remember the Better Life markets she created where you could get fresh produce straight from the farms at cheaper rates.The women didn't have to pay exorbitant rates to trade there. The markets had many women coming from rural areas to trade mostly on Sundays. She supported women entrepreneurs in different fields.
She also supported the creation of People's Bank for the poor (especially women) to provide easier access to credit.

na lie.. Mama peace. Patience Jonathan is the most popular among them. Her vocal made her popular
Leave that thing hooray, just because she was involved in memes as a result of some grammatical errors or catch phrase she says or the involvement in Looting does not make her as popular and charismatic as the late Stella obasanjo, Stella died a very long time ago 2005,i understand that's why you think patience was popular than her, which is not true, you can't deny the fact that stella went places when she was the first first wife.
