This list is incomplete without akpabio.
All the achievements of these governors listed,pale into insignificance when compared with akpabio's.
Akpabio is Nigeria's best governor by a country-mile,and i am not even from akwa-ibom.

The next generation will not forgive Okorocha for his present policies in imo state if he doesn't adjust now. Okorocha is turning Imo state to consumer oriented state rather than producer oriented depending solely on federal allocation. Racall that he has made education at all levels more than even free for imolites, by paying huge allowances to all students. He is also payiing higher than the national miniumum wage to civil servants. Okorocha gives free 10 liter of fuel 2 some keke napep users everyday, okorocha exempted some so called investors from tax, among other. Imolites are happy with these developments. But i must tell u that okorocha is seriously killiing imo economy, because he has blocked the way for direct techical skill aquisition (vocational skills) which is one of the keys to economic devoloment. He has lured imolites away from thier potentials of creativity since most youths who had potentials of vocational skill aquisition are now pushing their minds towards the conventional schools just for tokens. Am assuring u dat by the time most of these youths will gradute Okorocha will not be there to employ them as he is seriously aspiring to be in aso rock.
Oshiomole is a true democrat and lover of his people. Who always listen to the voice of the commons. But he is the kind who says yes to whatever the people say. But that is not what we need in this present Nigeria.
As for mimiko he's a good governor and okey.
Fashola on the other side, is creative and innovative. He understands nigerians. He knows that nigerians needs coession force or let me say the "carrot and stick" approach before they can obey simple instructions. He knows nigerian democracy should somtime be like jungle democracy where the leader should somtimes be radical. And thats what we need in this presents nigeria. Am not campaigning for Fashola, but If he's to become the president of Nigeria 2day, am sure he can transform dis country for good with his radz.since when did vocational skills better than going to school enemy of progress, witch education remains the key.

I give it to Rochas!

The philanthropist without boundary, the man that have the poor masses at heart, the man that took after awolowo legacy to the SW.

Rochas foundation has been helping the orphans with free education nationwide b4 Rochas emergence as Govnor, now he replicates such gesture in the state and it marvels the people. If Rochas only contribution in Imo is education revolution, history will remember his just as awolowo and michael okpara.

Am from anambra btw

That excuse is not valid enough.
He could have chose to embezzle the state revenues and not develop the state,but he didn't.
Look at bayelsa,with all the oil money and micro-population,yet one of Nigeria's most poorly run state.

truth can sometimes be bitter but it must be told, naija will never develop if we continue to believe that we can continue to get things for free. The likes of Fashola are the kind of leader we need in this country for meaningful development to take place else we will continue to remain at the same spot. Though government need ti do more in terms of warfare of the masses but we must all continue to remember that GOOD THINGS don't come CHEAP

Re: Fashola, Mimiko, Oshiomole Or Okorocha: Who Is The Best Governor? by freewitme(m): 3:39pm On Dec 02, 2012
my best governor; hmm! this is a close one between the 4 governors mentioned but critically looking at their individual achievement in the providence of good governance, putting infrastructures in their rightful places and so on, i should assume that as to be the best in their reach.
FASHOLA- he has transform to Lagos State to his lost glory having successfully taking the mantle of leadership from his predecessor 8 yrs ago. but has come out to put an iron hand on lagosians with the removal of Okada making life diffcult for movement and standard of living for the average lagosians. can he be your best governor? think again, he is so out
MIMIKO- in the aspect of good governance, he has won the pride of the ordinary ondo man but a constant enemy to the progress of ondo indigenes living in diaspora. leading a gang up war which he knows fully well that is a lost battle will totally affect his ambition of being the best. he should rather not be in the list. grin no offence.
OKOROCCHA- he has improve the life of indigene of the state particularly in the educational sector were Imo state citizen won't a pay dime from the primary to the teitary institutions, a 1st and it is laudable for this great achiever. kudos wink cheesy but he is below par in governance.
OSHIOMOLE- he has transform the hearbeat of the nation, Edo state to its lost glory of old and putting inplace infrastructures to help the people. no wonder he was re-elected for a 2nd term and he is not stopping. he has won the heart of the Federal Government because he has become and instant mediator for the Government and Labour Union and with that trend, we are seeing a president in the making in him. 3 bosa for the man wen sabi! smiley wink cheesy
so my governor without arguements is Oshio- baba, who is yours?
Re: Fashola, Mimiko, Oshiomole Or Okorocha: Who Is The Best Governor? by fabj1(m): 3:41pm On Dec 02, 2012
i'd say Fashola, Okorocha, Akpabio nd Oshiomole. The northernaz are wack. They dnt luv thier pple. They jst use dem 4 evil violence.

[quote author=Slimboy94]I've been thinking about this for a while.

These are the four most talked about governors in Nigeria.

Who do youu think has ruled best. Rochas is less than two years so dnt judge him yet
Re: Fashola, Mimiko, Oshiomole Or Okorocha: Who Is The Best Governor? by deletrue: 3:44pm On Dec 02, 2012
[quote author=Coldfeet]Na wa o! That's why most people failed Jamb 3 times!! Simple question is Fashola! Mimiko! Okorocha! and Osiomhole! Who do you consider best? People are naming other gominors! If you feel your choice is not listed pls go and open another thread for them!











































Signed Owelle Rochas Okorocha
Executive Governor of Imo State+[/quote That is nigerians for you. If you carry out survey of Nigerians, say fifty persons, you may hardly get six normal nigerians! That why i some times praise punch. This paper identifying who a nigerian is, because punch will publish highly biased and abnormal issues that will enable people of like manner to comment without wasting time, thus, showing their similar character. Please, parents i will blame you for this children who are fast becoming something else. Manage and train these childen such that there will be changes in the character of the tomorrow nigerians.

What I can deduce from this thread is

1. Most of the arguments are based on hear-say, making them seem "lame" to a realist.

2. Some governors are only endorsed cos of so much media hype.

3. No set standards for the argument and so it's just moving here and there.

But they say behind every rumour, there is a truth atom and so for some of these governors to be mentioned, means there is a step-up in governance in their various states.
Truth is, whatever policies a democratic government makes, there must always be some opposition. Fashola bans okada and someone says that's why he cannot become presidents only leaves you shaking your head @ how shallow the persons faculty can relate to trends. Plus the training a doctor argument another guy made which from the "fashola" angle is kinda correct because its illogical to say a doc can be trained on 25k.

As much as capital projects are geared at long-term betterment, the okorocha's education policy is laudable. I wonder why one will argue for technical or vocational studies as if schools don't have such departments which if same okorocha looks at and develop, will go a long way to better the "minds" and "hands" of the trainees or students per say. If you say free education is no good policy,then you'll need to check out what's happening up north.

Btw, the Nigerian media needs to do more on information dissemination.

The rule of law requires the government to exercise
its power in accordance with well-established and
clearly written rules, regulations, and legal principles.
A distinction is sometimes drawn between power,
will, and force, on the one hand, and law, on the
other. When a government official acts pursuant to
an express provision of a written law, he acts within
the rule of law. But when a government official acts
without the imprimatur of any law, he or she does so
by the sheer force of personal will and power.
I am of the view that its only uneducated person will support Fashola who has violate the section of 1999 constitution pursuant to section 214 of 1999 constitution 2011 amendment all in the name lastma performing the same function with police and the rule of law said their will be no any other police which Fashola is agitating to establish in order to achieve personal aims and objectives infact I hate BRF

Fashola all the waaaaaaaaaaayy

Do you all realize that all the other states collect almost twice 2x the money given to lagos state from the federal government. The population of all this other states are less than 8 million and Lagos state as a population of 20 million plus.

Lagos is a little nigeria on its own, lagos as every citizen of nigeria, west africa and maybe africa as a whole present there.

elampiro: What criteria is used to determine the best governor given the fact that the four listed have spent different number of years in office, they do not have same allocation from federal government and some are capable of generating fund than others (IGR and external debt)?

I think the argument should be logical, not a road side blind talks.

Well said! I totally concur
