Time will not permit me to let #landers know the good work of Mr Peter Obi, it's true that Ngige tried to do some roads in the state b/4 the emergence of Mr Peter Obi , yet Anambra as a state had not even a state secretariat that he has to start from building a befitting secretariat for the state,
Peter Obi is the man that laid the foundation of Anambra as a state, since then he has been going on implementing the ANIDS programs through which he is developing all sector of the state simultaneously,
such as ; Instituting the government ,
Security, health , Education ,
Road network that touches every community in the state even those areas termed as minor, example is the Umueze-Anam - Mmiata road which is the first road construction undertaking by any state government in Anambra west local government Area since the state was created,
Agriculture, Commerce and industry , sport and youth development , lands and housing, community development to mention but a few,
Upon all these, he is not making noise neither do he want the second term at all cost as other desperate politicians who go around trying to confuse / mislead people with lies,

Mr Obi has not finished his God given mandate in Anambra state till 2014.

slap1:

if the Enugu guy is trying why does it look like his people are deserting the road.

edoyad:

Mr beaf i urge you again to please tell me which HDI ? Is it the one of the UN of one Nigerian government agency, please be specific.

babapupa:

Dude, what challenge are you talking about and of what use is your irrelevant index and challenge to me when the discussion is about the best governor?

Don't you wanna go start your own thread and discuss your index to your heart's desire?

The Human Development Index (HDI) is an index used to rank countries by level of "human development", which usually also implies whether a country is developed, developing, or underdeveloped.

edoyad:

@Beaf, So going by what i have said, i'm sure we can compile our own little developmental Index her[/b]e.
1.We should compare the state of security between both
2. Level of education and access to it
3.Electricity and water - don't tell us of generators for street lights o.
4. Transportation in all forms and ramifications of it.
5. Housing in terms of facilities to aid commoners in procuring one.
6. Health situation in all It's ramifications: no. of health workers visavis population, mother/infant mortality rate, access to and cost of treatment etc

I'm open to more suggestions from you.

FACE:

I know what the problem is; the range of world view !

Fashola is doing great according to those in Lagos but they have not been to the other 35 states to measure their satisfaction of how their respective governors are meeting their needs.

What the Lagosians are doing in effect is to compare Fashola with the previous governors of Lagos state, just like the "world series" where only Americans compete and become world champions.

There are so many indices used for measuring development and until all those are compared nationwide, you can not stay in your state and award your governor the best governor of th nation regardless of how excellent you think he is.

Delta state is so safe that virtually all the oil companies have relocated to LAGOS state Inspite of lagos not having one oil well abi ?
What is the employment situation in Delta state ?
Dude, do you think those your funny institutions is what is meant by education ?
Do you know what transportation is ? Well transportation has a lot with conducive public/mass transportation - even Fifa don't give you hosting rights without that.

Pro Anti:

I think Edoyad needs to learn how to argue in the rgiht manner.
U dont argue with only refutations. You bring out your own points backed with statistics and logic.

That aside, I've only spent more than one week in 4 states(Kaduna, Rivers, Lagos and Delta) in the last 12 months and from what I knew about those states and what I see now, I think all of them are performing.
In terms of Infrastructural development, Fashola and Amechi are miles ahead of Uduaghan and Sambo.
In terms of Humand capital development, Uduaghan is doing great.
In terms of reorientation and value perception, Fashola and Uduaghan.
Health, I cant really say, but I know Fashola builds larger structures probably because of the cost and scarcity of land in Lagos.
Security, Sambo. hmmm! Uduaghan considering the state of lawlessness that was evident as a result of the ND struggle; Fashola, considering the population of the state.
Over all, Fashola and  Amechi. But the masses hate these people.

Lagos state without question is the most insecure state in the country after Anambra. The rate of Armed robbery in the state is second to none nation wide. Lagos has one of the highest incidences of homicide not only in all of Africa, but throughout the globe.

2) Level of education and access to it
Lagos State with a population of 16 million has just  4 Universities.= UNILAG, LASU, Caleb University & Pan African University.
Delta State with a population of 4 million has 4 universities = DELSU, Western Delta Univ, Novena Univ & Fed. Univ. of Petro. Tech.

Delta & Edo state students have for the past two decades, colonized the top spot in any of the various national exams including JAMB, NCE, et al.
Delta state produces far more graduates than Lagos state depite the huge population difference.
The decrepit nature of government schools in Lagos state cannot in anyway, by any standard  be  compared with those in Delta state.

Electricity and water
Please don't even start with this one. Delta state has zero problems with water. Zero. The water levels are so high and clean in Delta state by nature's providence that there is hardly a need for the Government to ever do anything about Water supply. Clean water is abundant beyond measure.
On electricity, everybody knows Lagos state has the biggest problem in the country.

PapaBrowne:

@Pacodas
You gleefully omitted the Delta State Governor whose state has been a major discourse in this thread!.
