Hi all,

Poster wants the 10 greatest Nigerian women of all time NOT 10 greatest of our time.
Dora, Odukoya and co shouldn't be on the list.
I know some may ask 'where is your list?'. Sorry, I don't know the 10 greatest Nigerian women of all time.
Some have actually tried to come up with intelligent responses.

Fumilayo Ransom Kuti etc are more like it. Not Athletes, pastors and political jobbers.

i think my mother is number one on the list,

farida waziri is a great mama

Fork dora out of that list she doesn't belong there!

WHY WOULD ANYBODY INCLUDE THAT
SHAMELESS,
FAKE NATIONALIST,
GROSSLY CORRUPT

DORA AKUNYILI IN THAT LIST!

Patricia Etteh
Iyabo O.b.j
Cossy Ojiakor
Ini Edo
Mercy Johnson
Turai Ya'adua
Maryam Abacha
Mama Gee (of NL fame)
etc etc

Most people will mention the usual prospects.

But my first choice is Hajiya Bola Shagaya

A very quiet, easy going, humble, hard-working, intelligent, beautiful woman. A successful businesswoman, a home-maker, mother and wife and a true icon of Nigeria and Africa.

She is a paragon of success, a model of excellence, and a standard bearer for the model Nigerian citizen - male or female.

Why una go forget mary mitchell slessor the only woman that stop the killing of twins in nigeria.

Stella Obasanjo

My mother of blessed memory MRS. GLADYS EKE who gave birth to me on a beautiful Sunday is among the greatest Nigerian women of all time.

Wow - be like say DORA no too get fans for this thread! LOL!

It makes you wonder though - if you are still part of current Nigerian society, is it easy for you to be declared as one of the greatest of all time

(Although, Soyinka and Achebe come to mind, to counter that argument, )

What do you think?

Should Dora stay or go?

Iweala

What tangible thing have these women acheived? Let call a spoon a spoon. Apart from the likes of Ezekwesili and Iweala that have achieved on an international playing field, the rest on these lists consists of mediocres, wanna-bes, and almost-were with a sprinkling of feel-good social studies heroines.

HAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!

KATA KATA DON SCATTA!! VPersie has thrown down the gauntlet!!! LOLz!!!

Does VPersie speak the truth??

What have I done?

VPersie, the truth is, I think there is some weight to what you have said.
I had to laugh at: "a sprinkling of feel-good social studies heroines."

I wonder how we compare the achievements of social studies heroines, to contemporary great women?
Or how we compare the influence of regional giants, to whom most of the country may not be familiar?


Hmmm.

Chioma Ajunwa:- Won Nigeria's 1st Olympic Gold Medal.
