God bless you my brother. He is definitely lagging behind in critical projects where his hands are most needed.

Many roads in the state are collapsing and for waste management, it's now an horror show.

donbachi:
A man bought his wife a jeep after given him eight children,inside ten years of marriage...and some people will be shouting:"chai the man try,him really love him wife,na God go bless am".such praises should be called for,if he had bought the car for a total stranger.then there is need for such praises...ambode never built those things with his own money.he built them with money meant for the state and money generated from the state...stop making them(politicians) feel too important...until we stop praising all these politicians,they will keep seeing us as fools.no past or present governor in america,has ever been praised for any project done.rather,they thank the people for giving them the opportunity to serve.

bigpastor:


What about the husband, after 8 children 10-yrs post-wedding, won't buy a jeep or keke napep but rather go out to olosho and spend our hard earned resources.
Abeg let's give it to him, he has done relatively well.

E kele dimkpa na nke omere, o mekwa ozo

We need better inner roads...that lead to real people's houses.

and a really cleaner Lagos!

Modarun:
Story stories, Ambode has an IGR of Approx 32billion every month, when you compare the kind of money he has at his disposal with what he has done, you will understand why I say Dankwambo of Gombe has performed better than Ambode. And Lagos is the most corrupt state in Nigeria. Ask the guys at Budgit and learn. When you know, you know.

deomelo:
He's still far far behind...

No ground breaking, or major futuristic projects like his predecessors Metro rail system and the 10 lane Badagry express with BRT access and he's even refused to finish many of his predecessors projects.
