The hatred for OBJ made the Rep members revolt against the speakership of Patricia Etteh in 2007.

And we still have hundreds of them that have gone into political oblivion.

Truly, ‘Igba o lo bi orere’.
No, No, No. It was a religious politics that was played out. To hang a dog, you must give it a bad name. The allegation of fraud was on a proposal her office had made for renovation and vehicles. She was later absolved on all corruption allegations. Her crime was that she was a christian occupying the number 3 position. The arguement was that three of the top four positions were held by christians.

I concur, how much is N628M for the renovation of her official residence and that of her deputy, as well as the purchase of 12 official vehicles compared to Frau* the Lawmakers who planned the coup against her cos she is closer to OBJ and not a Muslim, if you know what those people are doing with Nigerian fund, don’t also forget it’s forbidden for women to rule men in the religion of Hausa.

Olu Falae should have contested for the Governor of Ondo state when he was running after presidency. He would have been bigger and stronger politically today.

And where did u put Saraki?
Saraki cannot be in the list. He still controls PDP structure in Kwara state and a very strong force in National level. Not being in government does not make him irrelevant

The fact that some people think that politicians should remain in lime light beyond their years in service or forever is what I have a problem with. Typical black man mentality. These is one of the reasons we still have these clueless old criminals in poverty.

Oga, don't say what you don't know. Patricia did not steal any money. She was accused of " anticipatory approval".
A trap was laid and she fell into it. A panel exonerated her later.
Exono waiting...? Go read the story again plz

The speaker of the Nigerian House of Representatives has resigned in connection with a corruption scandal.

Patricia Etteh stepped aside Tuesday, bowing to weeks of pressure to resign. Her deputy Babangida Nguroje also resigned.

Lawmakers selected one of her opponents, Terngu Tsegba, as acting speaker.

An investigation found last month that Etteh had violated House rules in awarding contracts worth $5 million for renovation of her official residence and purchase of at least 10 cars.

. Okay, remove Olu Falae from the list. He was never a powerful politician. Also remove Odili, he is still a strong man in Rivers politics, though he might not be as lousy as Wike but he commands respect. Any politician that people go to consult during election is still relevant/powerful.
Falae was relatively strong in the 3rd republic. He came 2nd to tafidan katsina, shehu musa yaradua in the botched sdp marathon primaries. He was even stronger in the 3rd republic than in the 1999 contest with obj.
