bashr8: SULLIVAN CHIME of enugu state is the best performing governor in nigeria and pls dont dare compare him with adams oshimole.
Seconded!!...
Mr. Researcher, i'm happy u also looked at the monthly allocation and IGR of these states u mentioned. If u look at it very well, only Chime of Enugu state belongs to a non-oil producing state and with little or no IGR still competes favourably...
Chime is the best there is....even with all the scarce resources...he has succeeded in transforming Enugu state to one of the fastest developing cities in Nigeria with massive development across all the sectors...

@op, you started a thread but prepared it to fail. How can you ask people who dont traverse Nigeria to give you the list of best governors. They will only give you a list of governors they like or give you a reply based on what the papers say. According to many papers, Orji is doing very well. lol

You must ask more specific questions to get proper answers. Most south west folks would tell you Fashola is the best and so on. But you must ask for real developement index to get the facts. For example, how can someone even put Oshiomole in the list of 5 performing governors in Nigeria. There is a big difference between a governor with promise and a performing governor. Oshiomole is a governor with a lot of promise and he is comign up, but to compare him with people like Akpabio and Fashola and Chime is very absurd. Same goes for Rochas. He is an upcoming with a lot of promise. People come here and tell youu he has constructed a lot of roads in one year. How many serious roads can you construct in one year? That is the propaganda you see all over Naija. Rochas is a very promising guy and he is doing well, but he is still way way off for you to place him in that bracket. You cant just roll out bulldozers on the streets and then claim you have already constructed a serious road just like that. It takes a lot of time and planning. So I urge you to somehow rephrase your question to specifics else you will keep getting funny answers

1. Fashola
2. Rochas
3. Akpabio
4. Amechi
5. Oshiomole


Rochas cannot be above Fashola because Imo is an oil producing state, therefore, they receive extra income apart from the normal monthly wages.

Also, Imo state has a population 4.8 million (density=710/km2 (1,800/sq mi)) while Lagos has a population density of 18 million, 3 times more than Imo state (density=20,000 persons per square km. more than 28 times of Imo state population density)
I hope you are aware of the internally generated revenue of Lagos State.I can tell you that in relative terms, Fashola is not performing well in Lagos State. If some other low income State Governors can manage the huge resources that accrue to Lagos State on monthly basis, you will never mention Fashola's name when it comes to performance. Its obvious many of us don't take cognizance of income disparity among the 36 States of the Federation before drawing conclusions on who is the best Governor. Aside from the fact that Lagos State Internally generated revenue is higher than that of Imo State, kindly look at the monthly Federal allocation that goes to each state on monthly basis with particular reference to Imo and Lagos States and get back to me asap.

If we are to take the complexity in term of ethnic group and administration into consideration,i think fashola should be rated the best,d dude is already in his 2nd tenure and he is not eyeing presidency.though lagos may be having a huge internaly generatd revenue bt its fg allocatn is far leser than that of most of the south east states like rivers etc. Rochas an anbition he is nurishing as evrybdy knows.d list sud be:
1)Fashola
2)Akpabio
3)Rochas
4)Oshiomole

collins Jn: Nice Compilation, But I Think Rochas Name Should Not Be On The List,Giving He Is Barely 1yr In Office.
Would Have Sent Ur Name To Efcc If U Included Peter Obi's Name In The List. WORST Ever State Governor.
this folks seem credible with their list. maybe they didn't approach Peter obi for some handouts because we know how much he loves to buy these awards. That's how obi, the worst governor of all time keeps getting away with propaganda.

to the list, some corrections tho. Rotimi Chibuike Ameachi of Rivers State has nothing doing there. He retired from governance after his first term.
My list thus
Rochas - IMO
Akpabio - Akwa Ibom
Fashola - Lagos
Chime - Enugu
Oshiomole - Edition

Lagos is the richest state. Yet, the road on my part of lagos is tolled. I pay 150 each time I pass. The roads are developed based on PPP, every bar I enter, they charge me VAT and service charge, me i never know what Fashola has done for my part of Lagos yet. Cos Government is not giving me water, no light and the road, I drive, I pay as I pass. I hear Fashola is trying. Congrats to him, but I no feel it. Sorry.
Re: Who Are The Top 5 Performing Governors In Nigeria? by esoteric1: 4:15pm On Jul 21, 2012
I think we should be careful in assessing and applauding some of these governors. Akpabio for instance has done so much for his state and also STOLEN SO MUCH from the state or at best wasted so much from the state's resources. Akpabio is obviously a billionaire today at the expense of his people. My advice: we should emphasize effective utilization of resources in our assessment so that we dont end up celebrating some smart thieves

Like I posted above, most of what you hear sometimes are just chants. For example, most people who say Oshiomole is doing so well say so because they keep comparing him with lucky. As long as you keep comparing him with lucky, he will always emerge a superstar. But when you compare him with expected standards, it becomes a different thing entirely and after 4 years, all the flood points in Benin are still as bad as ever. No change. He like Fashola, has concentrated in beautifying the city center and providing transportation. He has renovated some schools too. But when you look at many other index like workers welfare, industries, social services, health care, just like Fashola, he comes up very very short.

I couldn't find a RELIABLE IGR data (manny4lyf and co will know what I am talking about, as we have had this argument before). However, think about the logistical difficulty Lagos face compared to Imo (remember, OVER 28 times Imo's pop density). Also, no matter the IGR, IMO still receives 13% derivation, yet you think Rochas is better?? I have not hear of many capital projects from Imo state ( the only thing he has done is the free education which I commend) but just yesterday Fashola commissioned 3 projects, even Chime is better in that aspect!

THanks MUNEER2. You couldn't have said it better. It seems OYO State ‎is‎​ simply unlucky with her past governors of late. Akala - very reckless, Ajimobi - quite passive. I listened to the electoral promises of Ajimobi and his scorecard till date looks quite dissappointing.

Mimiko of Ondo State deserves a place among the top 5 performing governors.
