I go with Aliko Dangote....He has impacted lives by employing youths.
Before they present these people, they need tell us why we should vote for them, how they'v helped the country "Nigeria" and its people...
The list is getting watery every year.No suprises,as the country itself is winding down. SMH.
whats ngozi iweala's name doing on d list?
The silverbird man of d year is myself. Nonses people. Welldone linda. God bless u d more.
They should rename it "person" of the year since it has both men and women.
Why isn't Fashola's name there?
all of them listed on dat page r the problems of Nigeria...so I dont v a pick sorry
None of the above. My man of the year is my husband who has taken care of the kids and I despite the harsh economic times. None of these people has impacted my life in a positive way so ..........
Whrz is rochas??**dat list needs 2 b reconsidered**...wel,i wld go wt akpabio,at least,i av indirectly benefitted frm him..
NONE OF DEM!!!
none of the above
Dangote ofcourse.
I must confess, he is the only one i wannabe. you know!
4me none of these people deserve 2b man of d year cos i honestly cannot really point @ what any1 of them has done 2 positvely impact d lives of d masses....if I'm to pick any1 i think it shld b d inec chairman 4d bold way he handled d april elections even though they weren't perfect,they were improvements bt unfortunately his name is not even on the list.....
funke osibodu shud be ashamed of herdelf,all union bank staff know dt she paid for this nomination,someone dts under investigation for fraudulent practices since her administration as md is a nominee for silverbird man of the year...pathetic..smh
let dem share it among dem all. all this people are not impacting on us rather they are milking us dry of what naturally belong to us all. Abegi next
Y isJega misin frm dt list?
how come its called a 'MAN OF THE YEAR AWARD' and u have the names of 'WOMEN' as nominees?
Nigerians as always praises the same crooks that ruin the country. Nduka ? are you serious......lol
who is dat idiot asking wat ngozi iweala's name is doin dere? If u dnt knw wat 2 say beta shut up. Linda publish dis post oh.
Linda, Atedo is Chairman, StanIBTC. Please correct
They should call it Person of the Year. And how come only heads of business or government are nominated? So lesser people can't be inspirational?
Nonsense award! none of them have done anything... most of them have helped impoverish nigerians.... whats did stupid award for?
This is a rubbish list, how have they positively impacted young Nigerians lrt alone Nigeria as a whole. This silverbird ppl sef. Rubbish pageants, stupid station and Ben' list, total crap.
Abeeg an calling Ben now, need my name to be on that list! How muchhhhh.Ben state ur price.
Gowon is still alive? I really don't care for these boys and girls.
I see Okonjo and her red lipstick wey she rub for mouth with her little finger is also nominated.
Good luck to other ones.
I vote 4 Dangote cos he provided employment 4 d youths...
This one na list? Let's move on to somthing else please.
Men, I love the comments I have read so far. I didnt know you guys share in my opinion as well. When I first saw the nominees, I was like jeez, what is this? If I'm to choose, I would go for Dangote cos I feel he's done STH for the economy even if him dey monopolise everything.
The people I feel shouldnt be in the list are:
1) Olusegun Aganga:What did he do for the country to merit being nominated. When he was finance minister, I didnt feel his impact; even Sanusi outshone him.
2) Ngz Okonjo-Iweala:I cant see what she's done to merit being nominated. If she had been nominated @ d time when the debt relief was granted, it for make sense but now?
3) Nduka Obaigbena:What did he do exactly? Okay, he owns a massive entertainment centre in ABJ, a newspaper and bringing foreign artists in Nigeria.
Why is Jega's name missing in the list?
How much did these people pay? Smh.
Since we werent asked to choose from the options, my man of the year is my dad. *Grins*
