What a joke list. OBJ is respected round the would for turning Nigeria around since 1999. Asa is more influential than King Sunny Ade and Femi Kuti? Are we having a laugh? Where is Chinua Achebe on the list? But I am seeing someone called Sagoe that I have never head of? What happened to Bayo Ogunlesi and Hakeem Belo-Osagie? What about Francis Arinze of the Vatican and Jay Jay Okocha? What about RMD, Ibrahim Agboola Gambari of the UN, Bola Ajibola? |

Sagamite:its not a joke list although a bit controversial like all lists. do bear in mind that the list refers tothe current. you are prolly in your 30s which is why you are aware of sunny ade and femi, but the current youth /916-25) know asa more. just like lil wayne being picked over prince in the US. has to do with age demography. deola sagoe is a well respected fashion designer. google her achievements. she is smoking! okocha yep. |
