I see chealsea Handler and I know that this list is absolutely crap. I mean why should I take a global list of importance that has Jeremy Lin serious? Waste of time

I know his ascendance into that list go pepper the usual ofe manu warriors who cant still believe that a fisherman is their boss....Hahaha..eko ile, bluetooth and co doh, Ndo, pele, ....PRESIDO don dey ascend o upon non stop hating from ofe manus

Una need to free this man abeg. The way Nigerians condemn GEJ you fit think he poured acid all over the Nigerian population. He inherited a bad nation with a bad economy, he hasn't it changed it much, fine condemn him on that fact but the way Nigerians are actin you'll think Nigeria was a developed nation before GEJ became president. He made the list, why una wan kill unaself over it?

GEJ has to be replaced with Ngozi Okonjo-Iweala.

igbo boy: I know his ascendance into that list go pepper the usual ofe manu warriors who cant still believe that a fisherman is their boss....Hahaha..eko ile, bluetooth and co doh, Ndo, pele, ....PRESIDO don dey ascend o upon non stop hating from ofe manus

@igbo boy

Hilarious though, but abeg my igbo bros spare our yoruba brothers'. Except for Bluetooth and co.

[b][/b]

Delafruita: If he's recognise globally what stops me from having a second thought about him to do d impossible.
its not a recognition.the same list has ayatollah khameini and once had osama and ghadaffi.time's list isnt about achievement,its about influence and the president of nigeria definitely has influence in africa

@Delafruita

Forget it, was it BOKO HARAM menace, insisitence on fuel subsidy removal, high-handed corruption and indiscriminate spending by his government, indecisiveness or what that got him on the list. I strongly believe that he got on the list by error.

@Seun
Your new nairaland page aint responding well o! Whats up?

[b][/b]

Sweetlemon: Yeye woman! Anyway, for those of u wondering why GEJ got there, remember that Osama bi Laden also made it to that list a few times so being an influential person does not translate to being a loved or a good person. It just means your decisions, words, or actions have the power of directly or indirectly influencing the lives of a large number of people positively or negatively.

@Sweetlemon

He got there by being very notorious. All this synicism is worth it.

Maybe the list was compiled on April 1

Ladies and Gentlemen, Please can someone out there tell me how this list affects the price of fuel in NIgeria.

Basics007: Maybe the list was compiled on April 1

Yeah perhaps it was or the people who compiled it were high on Alomo

who has GEJ influenced?

eh; every one is complaining that we are not seeing the advantages of democracy in this time..

he he he he, nairalanders una no go cease to amaze me. GEJ don make the list; no matter the parameters used for selection. All these pouts, tantrum throwing and abuse no go comot am. Abeg make we hear word.

Messi deserves it.

Some piple are busy talking crap without trying 2 know de process dat produce dis list Time magazine gave out 200 names and ask piple around de world 2 vote 4 de piple of their choice dat will make de hundred list I voted 4 Messi so I tink everybody on dat list deserve it cus na piple like me and u voted 4 dem

TRACK: Just that he inherited too many problems, he is trying to stand out. We expect more from him.

Yeah

Congrats GEJ, haters go hug a TRANSFORMER, and BTW who was d last Nigerian to make that list sef?

really, most nairaland poster are just stark unbelievable, because some one makes the list of of times 100 most inflential does not make him a performing person. Osama Bin Laden have made this list severally and was even nominated as times man of the year, what good did that add to the world, you can be among the times world 100 influential reason for all the wrong reason and i guess that was why GEJ made the list. but that is not to say that we should all hate our President, because his continous failures affects us more than it affects him, his family and cronies, therefore we should all pray and work hard in our little ways to move & project our country positively

Gabbysky: Congrats GEJ, haters go hug a TRANSFORMER, and BTW who was d last Nigerian to make that list sef?

Pls go and check the meaning of influential in your dictionary. Osama bin Laden also made it to that list a number of times so I guess we should have congratulated him too abi?

Godman_n:

Are we still in April?

The biggest April fool from Jokers.

It is not April fool. Here is the real link:

I think it was a Typo error

That Sirleaf of a woman must be high on some weed! Eradicating corruption my foot. How many of the named corrupt officials have been sentenced? We would rather leave it to England to do it for us.

This is just funny,laughable and the biggest joke. I can believe that GEJ is among the list
where he's done little or nothing to fulfill the promises he made to Nigerians before his election.

Perhaps its an award for being a good little obedient boy to the powers that be in international
