The guy seems to have nice track record. Anyway why did he only go for indigenous a third of resident for free education. It would only require a bit more tax money from everyone. I would need to know his stances on national issues mainly economy, devolution of federal power by adding items to concurrentl ist.

He handed over the Nigeria's largest bridge on land. 

He also built a hydroelectric power station in Tiga which is still under construction.

He built 3 new ultra modern cities namely Kwankwasiyya, Bandirawo, Amana cities.

Yeah Kano has nice looking road network in city.

What makes these city Ultra Modern? What services and amenities do that others dont?

The power station sounds cool.

Is it not obvious no sane reputable person to govern this country.. its either they are corrupt, tribalized, regionalized, or stooges to all of the above..

And you know the major problem, if we eventually get an almost right person, the crowd would be bought against him/her, the senate would be bought against him/her.. the masses would be bought against him/her.

We need someone who would look these old men in their faces and spit on them if they are against progress of the nation.. but are we united enough to support that one person?
