President Goodluck Jonathan’s nomination of Hajia Bola Shagaya for the forthcoming national conference would not come as a surprise to many. The popular socialite has sustained the closeness she has always maintained with successive governments since the days of General Ibrahim Babangida.
The Bola Shagaya brand has succeeded in proving the point that a brand can remain relevant for as long as it recreates itself in tune with the spirits of the times. Bola Shagaya has not for once vied for an elective position, but her influence in every government in the history of contemporary Nigeria cannot be over-emphasised.
The Member of the Order of the Niger (MON) is one of the two nominees in the category of Women in Management, Business and Public Service (WIMBIZ), alongside Ifeoma Idigbe. Since the news of her nomination was made public, his homes and offices have been receiving hordes of visitors on congratulatory missions. An inside source also said that various women groups have inundated her office with memoranda.
