1. Alh Tafawa Balewa (Assassinated on January 15, 1966)

Tafawa Balewa, Nigeria's first prime minister was murdered in the July 1966 coup.


2. Gen. Aguiyi Ironsi (Assassinated on July 29, 1966)

37-year-old Gen. Murtala Muhammed was murdered in Lagos while on his way to work in a failed coup attempt. He was in office as Nigeria's 4th head of state for barely 7 months.


4. Gen. Sani Abacha (Died of Natural Causes on June 8, 1998)

Believed to be Nigeria's most brutal head of state and dictator, Gen Sani Abacha was reported to have died of natural causes in 1998. However, some people believe that he was actually murdered by his own henchmen using a poisoned apple that triggered a heart attack.


5. Umar Musa Yar'Adua (Died of Natural Causes on May 5, 2010)

Katsina state born Umar Musa Yar'Adua was reported to have died of natural causes in a hospital outside Nigeria in 2010. His unfortunate death generated a lot of debate over who will succeed him in office pushing Nigeria to the brink.


I Pray Nigeria will Never lose its leaders again.

vanity upon vanity.
Some of them actually gripped power beyond abnormality. Some actually was in the office for a good motives and intention but was cut short. How sad fate cut us short.
When will Nigeria ever have faithful leaders who will survive and steer us positively??

If that's a joke, it's too expensive. Don't wish anybody death, God gives and takes.

For those who cared to be helped....they get it. No nation grows with corruption so rooted and buried in it. We can only develop if we eliminate most of those bastard thieves.

Am sure if yar'adua had finished his tenure he wouldn't be missed. Nigerians would have said something bad about him. How many past nigeria leaders who finished their tenure were favourably sung?
