One Month In Office: New Governors,
New Hopes.

Nigeria’s newly elected governors have spent
one month in their respective offices already.
While some have hit the ground running,
others are still crying wolf over their
predecessors’ actions and others running to
the Federal Capital Territory every now and
then to queue for “Abuja Money. this are compilation of a list comprising 5 new
governors who have shown their intention to
perform from day one.
Read below:
1. Nyesome Wike (Rivers): If there is any
governor who resumed office with the zeal to
perform, then Nyesome Wike is the right
choice. From the first day he resumed, Wike
set out to restore the lost glory of Rivers
state which his predecessor, Rotimi Amaechi,
practically left to rot because of politics. Wike
immediately opened the courts that was under
lock and key by Amaechi for months, started
renovation of the abandoned Port Harcourt
roads, visited markets, made key
appointments, directed the payment of April
and May salaries of civil servants in the state,
started an inspection tour of projects and
generally get down to business all within a
month.
2. Okezie Ikpeazu (Abia): Apparently aware
that he took over from one of the worst
governors in the last dispensation; Theodore
Orji, who happens to be his benefactor,
Governor Ikpeazu has decided to let sleeping
dogs lie and has started efforts at cleaning up
the mess left by Orji. He has started tackling
the huge salary arrears, pensions and
gratuities he inherited from his predecessor.
3. Nasir El-Rufai (Kaduna): Despite the
disastrous state in which his predecessor left
the state, El-Rufai has trudged on without
much complaint and has instead made major
moves aimed at reducing the cost of
governance. Like the professional that he is,
El-Rufai has since settled down to the nitty-
gritty of governance and has started making
his impact felt in Kaduna state.
4. Akinwunmi Ambode (Lagos): As if trying to
distance himself from his predecessor’s style
of governance which has been dubbed “elitist”
by some analysts, Ambode has quickly
identified with the down trodden in Lagos.
Several visits to the suburbs for inspection of
on-going projects, abandoning the luxurious
Marina House for the hustle and bustle of
Alausa and making concrete efforts aimed at
ending the Apapa traffic gridlock al point to
this fact. With sleeves rolled up and a jeans to
match always, the Epe-born governor has
given early signals that Lagosians won’t regret
voting him into power.
5.Senator Ben Ayade (Cross-River): This is
one governor who was well prepared for the
task ahead. He has always been in the news
for the right reasons and has also reached out
to the opposition to move the state forward.
From locking civil servants out of work for
lateness, to commencing the process of
building a garment industry, cocoa processing
plant, rice mill and modular refinery in the
state. Ayade has shown that he is not in the
government house for child’s play.
Meanwhile, the Peoples Democratic Party
have criticised President Muhammadu Buhari
on his performance in the last 30 days,
saying his performance was “30 days of all
motion and no movement.”

that is before election na... he should come and finish the one he's doing at akute(Ifo lg) and repair the road from ojodu berger to akute, in collaboration with ambode.

And Okorocha is busy planning how best to punish Imo people for being so gullible that they allowed him to be a second term governor. In Imo state today, it is weeping galore and nothing positive is happening.

some Gov. have nt even done anytin or maybe dey don't even knw wia to start

Okay..to be honest with you as someone who made use of that bridge on few occasions,the bridge itself is below standard as it is not smooth enough compared to the bridges built in his constituency Abeokuta. Inasmuch as I like the governor though..he's kinda disappointing though.
