Fictional character biography

Prior to the crash

Originally from Nigeria, Mr. Nigeria, officially named the Federal Republic of Nigeria, is a federal Constitutional republic comprising thirty-six states and one Federal Eko would always look out for his younger brother, Yemi, and the two lived in a small village. Eko once stole food in order to care for Yemi, which resulted in him being forced to confess his sins in the local church. Sin is a term used mainly in a religious context to describe an act that violates a moral Rule, or the state of having committed such a violation Since Eko did not see this action as wrong (he saw it as helping someone in need); he refused to do so. One day, as Eko is playing with the local children, a gang of guerrillas raided the village in search of young recruits. When Yemi refuses to shoot an elderly man, Eko steps in and shoots him himself, sparing Yemi from the same fate. Impressed by his actions, the guerrillas take Eko away with them, where they draw him away from his religious lifestyle and into the criminal life. Eko grows up to be a fearless warlord and a vicious leader of a guerrilla group. He acquires a large amount of heroin, which he intends to smuggle out of the country. Eko returns to his home village and visits Yemi, who has now become the priest of the local church. He asks Yemi to help him smuggle the heroin by giving him a large number of Virgin Mary statues to hide it in, and also the use of the plane, in return for a large sum of money. When Yemi refuses, Eko threatens that his associates will burn the church down if he doesn't sign documents that allow him and his henchmen to appear as priests. Yemi reluctantly agrees.

Eko and his men assemble at the airfield, disguised as priests, on the day the shipment is ready to be smuggled. However, Yemi has tipped off the military, and tries to convince Eko not to go through with his plans. When the military arrives, however, Yemi is wounded in the ensuing gun battle; while Eko helps load him onto the beechcraft, he is suddenly kicked off of the plane and left at the mercy of the military. Surprisingly, Eko is mistaken for Yemi and released back to his village. Feeling guilty over Yemi's evident death, Eko assumes his role as the village priest. One day, Eko encounters a gang of guerrillas who made a deal with Yemi: they take 80% of the vaccines delivered to the village in exchange for the village's safety. At first, Eko refuses to cooperate, but at the cost of an innocent life, Eko reluctantly agrees. In a bid to save the village from the guerrillas, Eko sells some vaccine to a dealer, with the intention that the trade is made known to the guerrillas. Soon after, the guerrillas arrive at the church and attempt to cut off Eko's hands. However, Eko fights back and kills them, much to the shock of the village. The church is thus boarded up and Eko is ostracized until he leaves for London (taking Yemi's place on the trip). London ( ˈlʌndən is the capital and largest urban area in the United Kingdom. He is told that he owes Yemi a church.

After leaving England, Eko serves as a priest in Australia, under the name Father Tunde. He receives a passport from a man taking confession to allow Eko to travel to Los Angeles. Los Angeles (lɑˈsændʒələs los ˈaŋxeles in Spanish) is the largest City in the state of California and the American West He is then asked by a senior priest to investigate a reported miracle of a young lady who has come back to life after drowning.

Claire Littleton is a Fictional character on the ABC television series Lost, played by Australian actress Emilie de Ravin Malkin dismisses the miracle as an act of incompetence by the undertaker, also revealing that he is not a real psychic. Eko soon prepares to board the doomed flight; shortly after buying a ticket, he encounters Charlotte, the girl whom the investigation is about. She tells Eko that she saw Yemi as she was "between places," and tells him to have faith. Eko grows angry and yells at her, only to be interrupted by a concerned Libby. Elizabeth, commonly known as " Libby," Eko is seated at the rear of the plane.
