Extracts from the autobiography of Obasanjo, The Watch, insinuates that Dame Patience Jonathan, Madueke Allison-Diezani, Stella Oduah and Okonjo-Iweala are the most powerful women in Nigeria.

Obasanjo wrote that there are five presidents in Nigeria, which include the above mentioned four women and Jonathan is the weakest of them all.

Obasanjo writes that “It was the same elder statesman who reportedly tried to jolt the president into action by telling him that there were five presidents in Nigeria, and these were his wife the first lady, Diezani (Alison-Madueke), Stella (Oduah), Ngozi (Okonjo-Iweala) and the president himself, and that he was the weakest of the five.
