Criticisms; first I think Chris Oyakhilome is more influential than Enoch Adebayo. But it was good attempt though. lol

What criteria were used to judge 'most influential'? The list, aside from Wole and Dangote, is fatally flawed. Is it by personal success or contribution to nation-building that was used to judge the so-called influence? In other parts of the world, helping the less privilege, the poor and the down-trodden of the society with ones wealth or personal service is used as meeting the criteria. Nollywood movies cannot win any international award outside Africa because it is cheaply scripted and acted and shot in a third rate fashion. No doubt they are improving with years, but to name any actor or actress as most influential, or any musician without legendary Fela is to lose sight of your motive. Ribadu may qualify if only for putting the fear of the law in some politicians albeit selectively.

Apart from 2 names here the rest is not worth it. The 2 names are, (1) Philip Emeagwali - 1989 highest award in computer engineering. (2) Wole Soyinka - 1986 highest award in literature. These are the men who drew the world's attention to Nigeria as a place where talented people come from. The rest of the 18 names can never be on the same list as the other 2.

Really really flawed.All these people are Christians what of head of the heads of the Muslim sects in Nigeria and policy makers?

Is that all you have to say? You are one of the wrong people we have in this country, look at your contribution.

Dangote has used his wealth to help victims of disasters around the world, including Nigeria. He can be said to have influenced millions of lives. Vanguard has become a bill board for promoting those it is disposed to favour. It is an ill-advised list. Nuhu is influencial because the fear of EFCC is the beginning of sanity in politics anti-corruption crusade. What about those that fought to keep Nigeria one? E.G Yakubu Gowon?

Its absolute flawed and someone has pointed it out there, things like this should be done via public opinion poll. This list certainly are 20 people who influenced the editor of vanguard newspaper, the guy like to hear Asa in the morning because certainly the guy doesn't understand yoruba, if he does he'll know that the yoruba lyrics of Asa are completely flawed only good for the ears of those who don't understand yoruba and not real yoruba people. The guy likes to see the good "ikebe" & allround nice stature of genivive abi how dem they write her name sef, the girl look good me sef i like am. For oga patapata Ribadu, he's influencial at least to win " the law breaker of our time", no respect for human rights, nothing like constitution, court of law can go to blazes, Ribadu is epitome of anarchy and lawlessness. Make i stop here jare, better things to think and do. Ire e o!
