6. Ike Ekweremadu: He has to his credit as the only politician that has occupied the positions of Council Chairman, Chief of Staff to Governor, Secretary to Enugu State Government, 5 time Senator, 3 time Deputy President of the Senate & one-time Speaker of the ECOWAS Parliament

4. Senator David Mark: The Senate was once considered the fortress of Senator David Mark. This is because aside spending consecutive 20 years (1999-2019) there, he also led the Senate for consecutive 8 years - becoming the longest serving Senate President in Nigeria's history.

Yahya Bello remains the luckiest politician in Nigeria history.
He became a governor without him not contesting, campaigning or going through court.

Yahaya Bello of Kogi is the luckiest even before Jonathan.

There's nothing lucky about David Mark and Ekweremadu.

GYB and GEJ are real definition of luck

1. Goodluck Jonathan: He's the ONLY Nigerian to occupy all of the top two executive positions in State and National levels. He was Deputy Governor (6½ years), Executive Governor (1½ years), Vice President (2years, 9 months), Acting President (3 months) and President (5 years).

So if someone bribed INEC and INEC announced a different result other than what elctorates decided and court restore the right result, you'd prefer INEC fraudulent result?

This is what I meant by Obi not winning election in 90mins. If not for the country's terrible judicial system, Obi would have been an alien Name in Nigeria and southeast politics. He has always come in through backdoor.

If Tinubu had given him his blessings and also worked for him, Kwankwanso and Obi would divide the block vote he is supposed to get, thereby paving way for Osinbanjo's victory...

Ekweremadu is one of the unluckiest politicians in Nigeria. Igbos in Germany tricked him, invited him to Nuremberg, he made a mistake wearing a bastardised version of Isiagu with Nigeria coat of arm design on it…IPOB went mad, tore his clothes and beat him up…

Fast forward to 2023, he is in prison and no Igbo man is giving a f**k about him.
that's Igbo for you we don't associate with someone that's not useful imagine Kalu wanting to be senate President even Dave Umahi left him and support Akpabio that's to tell you we don't follow nonsense

Although some on the list may have done their bit, but i am sure they wished they could have done so much more. Because with all the luck they had finding themselves in the corridors of power one way or the other, didn't really transcend into the quality of leadership as expected.

No Nigeria leader Will Succeed under this structure oooo. LETS GO BACK TO REGION.

2. Olusegun Obasanjo: He was appointed Chief of Staff Supreme HQ (VP to Military Head of State), became Military ruler without participating in coup, became President in 1999 after release from prison without struggle & served 8 full yrs. He's Nigeria's longest-serving leader

3. Ibrahim Gaidam: Politicians in Yobe were shocked when Mamman Ali picked Geidam as his Deputy in 2007. When Gov. Ali died in January 2009, Geidam became the Governor, holding the office until 2019. He is the longest serving Executive Governor in Nigeria's history (10 ½ years).
Yet, he achieved nothing meaningful besides becoming richer.

Who told you he didn't participate in coup? He must have been part of the coup that brought Murtala to power. His appointment as second in command must have been a reward without which he wouldn't have succeeded Murtala after his death.

This is an imagination, who told you he would have won the presidential election if he had won Apc primaries? Tinubu didn't stopped him, he contested and lost fairly and that is politics for you, nobody will offer you a position on a platter of gold, everything is contested for.

I am surprised you haven't used insulting words though. I am not sure you are a thorough bred Obidient. They ask questions with insult and answer with insult.

Obi is a good person no doubt but he needs people around him to actualise his political dream. I don't mean a cankerworm like Atiku.

It is high time the southeast leaders put out a united front though after emancipating themselves from PDP exploitative and mental slavery.

They kinda synergy that exists between the west and the north should have been between the west and the east if you ask me. It will be too formidable but what I don't still is why both sides is always at opposite ends when it comes to political lining.
