one big very well equipped hospital that will serve as a tertiary referral centre is worth 50 of those small painted halls you call primary health care centres that some governors commission and Nigerians will be clapping for them. healthcare is really capital intensive and this is commendable. i hope they will be able to maintain it and ordinary folks can afford it. manpower will be another issue and i hope crony-ism will not defeat its purpose. the state govts should look towards improving health insurance.
btw i'm really amazed at the content... i see machines inside!!! kudos akpabio

Nsiman:
Another uncompleted project commissioned

doublewisdom:
Akpabio the only Governor who worked in the SS. The rest na errors.

Toktee:
to me,this is crap,with N13bn and nddc founds,i said this is rubbish,kano state governor and lagos state governor with lesser allocation did better than that.

juicee1:
SW= Fashola

SS= akpabio

N= kwakwanso

MB= ?

SE= ?

So who is to blame for Amaechis loss of focus? Amaechi is a human being and he has what is called choice, he choosed to fight jonathan instead of concentrating on improving rivers state, he let his ego get the better of him he has himself to blame for the problems he caused. leadership is about being able to manage your failures and disappointment anyone can manage success but its a great leader that can wade through his problems and not pull everything down because his ego is hurt.
Do you think Akpabio and other gov.who stayed the course with GEJ did not have disagreements with GEJ? They stayed the course because did not allow their personal interest to override party/national interest.

Sure, but the fact they have this bugdet shows the money is coming from somewhere? This are budget planned with their revenue in mind and not some fantasy dream often synonymous with couples before reality strikes.
Imo state for instance cannot plan using Akwa ibom's gigantic budget so the wedding analogy doesn't make a lot of sense here.
For their budget to be that high, it means the money is coming from somewhere. Hence they are the richest.

Ah ah.Akpabio fits Nigerians wella.
Build one stadium in 8yrs and commission a not fully completed hospital by showcasing some sophisticated equipment while embezzling billions and voila, u are d best governor in d world!
While Fayose is on one side scamming d people with rice and live chicken,Akpabio is on d other side scamming them with 'state of d art' buildings and in d middle there is Elechi commissioning uncompleted 'modern markets'.Ah Nigerians, it shall b well.

On the contrary I think it's cool and necessary. Nature and beauty has a way of healing people psychologically and mentally. When you travel you'll understand the importance.

'to me...' Thank God its 'to you'!
If you call this crap, I begin to wonder where you stay!

If you call this 'rubbish', you need serious help!

Akpabio has failed

zik4ever:
To be honest, whatever this man's shortcomings may be, he has completely re-defined governance! How is he doing it? I know you'll say he got a lot of money? You may even say he stole much more but I am compelled to commend him. I think at the end of the day, it’s not entirely about whether you are APC or PDP. Lots of what Amaechi did (and most were in his first term) were done while he was a PDP Governor. Of course, there are good APC Governors so it’s really down to individuals. Again I hate to disappoint you but even the Governor of Jigawa State, Sule Lamido who has handed over to his SSG and gone abroad, did a lot -ask natives of that State. All you read in the Press is the debt he left and how his son was caught in suspected money laundering -not that I am defending the said allegation which have not be established in a court of competent jurisdiction.
Governor Jang of Plateau State is more known nationally for the NGF 19/16 fiasco, issues with salary payment, the crisis in the State and "Berom agenda" yet again, I lived in that State and visit frequently, I am not sure any ex-Governor of that State other than late Joseph Gomwalk did what he has done in terms of physical roads etc even if according to you (and it might be correct) all are in Berom land -the roads are permanent property of Plateau State!
I can go on but of course there were disastrous and woeful performance by some PDP State Government starting with my own!
I just pray this new crop of Governors and Mr. President will even try to make small changes -I do not have messianic expectation and won’t be disappointed if I don’t see very radical changes.
If you disagree with me and I didn’t get my facts correct, forgive me but I am sure you know this doesn’t call for insult or accusation. I am your fellow citizen who wants the best for our children in the future!

What he is trying to say is that the governor should be doing more, espcecially when with his biggest biggest fund allocation in Nigeria. Lagos with the 4 times the population and less budget is doing just as good or even better.

Uteghe:
One hospital in eight years: that's the definition of failure.

Have you been to Uyo before? If you have gone there, you will not say this thing.

One hospital in eight years? Where do you live?
You sound as someone who only lives in one part of Nigeria with heart filled with unsavory prejudices.

Definitely you have never been to Akwa Ibom.
Akpabio has built more new general hospitals, cottage hospitals and comprehensive health centers than Fashola and Amaechi combined.

I traveled to the state and saw things for myself and I can tell you that Akpabio is the best governor in Nigeria.

No, but are all the road tiled?
Are all the worker's salaries paid?
Is everywhere nice?
Osun state has 4.2million people with 197 billion naira yearly budget, while Akwa ibom has 4.8mill people with a budget of 496 billion naira.
Now the workers haven't been paid just like in osun while akwa ibom has one of the highest unemployment in the country(More than Osun).
Tell me, how can you make sense of this with the biggest budget and one of the best per capita.
If you think this is acceptable then it's fine, but I think it's time we should start fighting for our rights.
If he was doing all these things with Osun's budget then I will call him the best governor in the world

What resources/Revenue does osun state contribute to Nigeria federal purse?
