Asiwaju Bola Tinubu:- Though you might call him corrupt (which has not been proven) and impossive,but the fact cannot be denied that he is an achiever. He created the template of development for today's Lsgos State, and spoted out talents that is making that dream a reality.Hate him or love him,his ability to spot out talent is second to known, and his leadership quality to make then perform and achieve the set goals is to top notch. Most importantly, he's detribalize. He's not a saint but, if given the opportunity to serve,He will.

Proff. Yemi Osinbajo:-Not many knew him,until he was given the opportunity to serve. He's a tireless worker. I cannot remember when he actually went on vacation, all through his first four years as VP. He was put in charge of the economy at a very bad time, many will say we had our longest recession by then. But we all know we could not have avoided that fate as at then. Against all odds, this administration was able to bounce back. Even when the president was incapacitated, the VP was able to fill his void perfectly well. Osinbajo did all the dirty job,thanks to the president that allowed him to shine. Even during the re-ellection bid,his impact was very obvious. He will surely perform if given the opportunity to serve.

Babatunde Fasola:- He's a trusted and tested performer. The two time governor took Lagos state, to a height far above other states of the federation. Before he became governor,he was not known to many. His stoning performance, earned him three ministries in this administration. Though, handling three ministries seams overwhelming, we must give it to him. In the housing and works ministry, he has not done badly based on the reality of our economy. In the power ministry, He was unstable but had his inputs. Thought he did not perform badly,he would have been an excellent minister handling a single ministry. He will definitely be a good president.

Ibikunle Amosun:-The new face of Of Ogun state can be credited to him. Ogun state has been greatly transformed under his leadership. Also not known by many before he became governor, but he has made a name for himself with his performance. Ogun state in now the most industrialized state of the national, with it's IGR growing at a rapid rate. He can also perform if given a higher task.

Akinwunmi Ambode:-If anyone tells you four years is not enough,tell them Ambode has proven that four years is more than enough. Though he's not much of a politician but,he did so much within four years. His inability to secure a second term is purely political,not because of nonperformance. He was also an unknown solder, nobody gave him a chance. But he performed excellently well. I'm sure history will rember his contributions to the growth and development of Lagos state. He can do better if given the opportunity to serve.

Akinwunmi Adesina:-I'm not sure he belongs to any political party but, he made a name for himself in a PDP administration. The nation benefited and is still benefiting from his Agricultural reforms. He is a performer and a kind of fresh breath that can fix our nation. He can do better as a president.

Listing these few names does not mean they are all the southwest has, feel free to had yours. And we sure have men from other regions too , this is based on my Knowledge of the southwest leaders.

And Buruji kashamu is not there?

@OP.



Add Fayemi and Aregbesola also. Right now Yorubas have only progressive leaders to offer. We have successfully banished those who take a lot (OBJ, OGD, Bode George, Alao Akala et al) and give the people nothing in return. Thanks largely to Tinubu working to decimate the PDP in the SW to aid the emergence of gentlemen and honourable women committed to delivering positive changes.

This is why I laugh at myopic Yorubas always cursing Tinubu because their knowledge of Nigerian politics does not go beyond GEJ and 2015. IPOB, Igbos and Kanu, out of envy and jealousy, have bent historical narrative of Nigerian politics to turn Tinubu into a " looting drug Baron" while deliberately ignoring his legendary transformation of the 'wild West' from an arena of thuggery, assassination (Dipo Dina, Bola Ige et al) and killer squads (Gbenga Daniel and co) to an environment where 'Ajebutters' like Fayemi, Fashola, Ajimobi et al could lead.

Intelligent Yorubas know what obtained under OBJ and the PDP. Zero progress, Killings and gangster politicians everywhere with illiterates like Lamidi Adedibu ordering PHD holders to lick his shoes. Today it is technocrats and Omoluabis everywhere. Tinubu enshrined finesse and order everywhere using well-educated and liberal men and women while PDP deployed monsters and killers who held the SW through intimidation and gangsterism. SW is definitely heading in the right direction taking into account the overall state of Nigerian leadership.

Why is Fayose missing from this list?

Charleys:
Why is Fayose missing from this list?

Have you not heard that Fayose and FFK are now honourable Igbo men? They are no longer SW candidates so kindly produce them as Igbo politicians. We dash una those fellas cause Yorubas are generous like that
