The work done by Ambode is not commensurate with the huge revenue the state is generating. Look at the poor state of roads

Abuja nko, place is freaking expensive!
Not talking about the satellite towns and Boroughs, but those expensive areas in the city.

Accommodation is what makes Abuja very expensive. But even at that it is still more expensive than Lagos.

Actually Abuja is only expensive when it comes to accommodation.
