If you say worst is like you are rating Kogi Governor, Governor yeye below higher than his performance. In any aspects of development either physical or human, he has nothing to write home about . I rated him to 1% among the Governors, meaning he took last.
Oh God deliver us(kogites) from GYB come 16th November 2019

I am sure it's not even close, just that it is difficult to explain in words. In Kogi, a director committed suicide because his wife put to bed,can you beat that? No salary, no pension

Na wah oh. I've been to Kogi a good number of times. And have a lot of close friends from Kogi as well and they can confirm that it's bad.

Hopefully God will touch their hearts in those 2 states oh.

Sanwo Olu is the worst Governor Lagos has ever had. He may not be the worst governor in Nigeria but based on past administrators of Lagos state.


All hail Sanwo Olu, the Worst Governor Lagos State Ever Had
I totally agree with you on this he can be considered the worst governor in the country based on the resources at his disposal and he gat no iota of ideas of what to do with it. He may be the best Facebook governor
The second on my list is Ogun state Governor Dapo Abiodun who doesn't even understand what is governance the two states are currently on reverse gear as the two governors may go down in history as the worst ever in their respective states.

Are you envisioning a Cersie-walk-of-shame (Game of Thrones) type of shaming? They should really be doing more.

And for beating them abroad, they can easily get the government of that country to provide security throughout their travels and we won't do anything about it. And I don't even think thats a good way of solving the problem because we've tried violence as a way of solving our problems in Nigeria before and it hasn't worked.

Get which government abroad to provide security? Only like at the UN General Assembly do they get security..... security taking them to the UN... and back to the hotel. Other than that... they ride around in Uber or their ordinary embassy vehicle.

Do your own rating let us see
Validated:


These are still unverified assumptions. Did you measure all the states on these parameters? NO! So, your personal opinion becomes a basis for adjudging states? See attached states allocation for July and see how states ranked. Then you would be in position to check what each state received and what you estimate they could have dome with it and how they are faring.
Re: Who Is The Worst Governor In Nigeria? by xxolisexx(m): 3:24pm On Sep 29, 2019
Delta is the worst, compared with the allocation given to delta, okowa and the previous governors are all disaster..

How much is this resources that you people reference all the time?

$3 billion budget for 20 million people to run the state civil service from ministries to agencies, build schools, build hospitals, waste management, complete ongoing major project, pay bills, pay vendors and suppliers and build thousands of damaged roads and so on and on?

Their budget in New York with comparable population and already developed infrastructures is $175 billion.

The problem is not the governor, it's lack of funds do tackle the all the issues on the ground.

I do't even see the sense in judging a less than 4 months administration based on anything.
Re: Who Is The Worst Governor In Nigeria? by Askhalid: 3:28pm On Sep 29, 2019
the worst governor ever is Arch. Darius Dickson of Taraba State , he has nothing to show as a governor only incite hatred among his subjects leading to lost of life's and properties.

This should help shine more light on my stated opinion. Okezie Ikpeazu has proven time and again that he doesn't know what he's doing.

In my grading system below, 1 is the lowest and 10 is the highest.

The role of state governments in Nigeria Grade
1 Security of its citizens and resultant properties 1/10
2 Provision of basic public utilities/amenities 1/10
3 Creation of an appropriate environment for economic growth 1/10
4 Ensuring our educational system is sound (Primary all the way to univ level 1/10
5 Establishment of health care facilities 1/10
6 Increasing state revenue generation and using it well 1/10
7 Maintaining state roads and setting up means of administrating local roads 1/10
8 Passing proper regulations to safe guard investments or its citizens 1/10

Ikpeazu is synonymous to Sanwo-Olu

I think the US has a service to protect foreign leaders visiting the US. However I think you might be right in that they don't protect the non-heads of state.

I don't want to get lost in the security/no security back and forth, my point is that we shouldn't resort to violence abroad to solve this problem..

Security situation:

All of those things are the responsibilities of the state in Nigeria. The state governors also gets the title of " Chief Security Officer of the State". We don't have state police in Nigeria but the governors have commissioners of police who they can work with to improve the security situation of their states.

Education:

Primary, secondary and Abia state university is under Abia state control. So is Kogi institutions. How is that Buhari's fault that your governor can't perform?

Paying salaries:

Abia and Kogi owe a lot of money in salaries. Common salaries. Pensions and gratuity is not even included in this oh. They don't treat the retired civil servants well at all. Shame!


Bro , U need to learn , that's why we are all here..

The Gov. is NOT the CSO of his state because the the CP reports and take orders from the IG. Even if all the state is burning and the Gov calls the CP, without getting directive from the IG of police, there will be no response to the Gov's calls...it has happened in Lagos, Plateau, Zamafara, Benue, Taraba...name them, forget about insecurity for any state, even in the SouthWest all the states are comming together to solve the insecurity challenges because its beyond a state alone and seems not to caught the attention of the fed govt yet u r here blaming one Gov. . I ve never been to the southeast in my life, and apart from the Python dance, to me, Abia is more safer than Enugu and Ebonyi always in the national dailies for one security issue or the other and I can't blame the Gov because it's a national issue just thesame way I won't blame Gov Zulum of Borno and Matawalle of Zamafara...


In Education , please name any federal primary, secondary, tertiary institution that is doing well , even more than a state even with the amount of money from fed govt ...
Education is a national issue in Nigeria, don't blame those state capitalizing on it... KOGI, Benue, Ekitit , Ondo, OSUN, all got BAIL OUT, but yet are still oweing before and after bail out...who should we blame

Can u pay huge amount for a service and did't get it and yet u fail to take action against those involve ??, Even when u have all the powers to get back ur money ??..


Nigeria is something else despite the blessings with resources...


If Federal works, States must surely work...sip it.

Well, the governor can work to increase the internally generated revenue and continue working. If he boosts the states economy enough, he can generate more revenue from taxing corporation, employees, and taxes on other activities in the state. So yes, the governor might not be the only problem but they can and should be solving the issues we are discussing here.

Be nice na, you shouldn't compare NY to any state in Nigeria. Maybe Lagos?. Haba In NY, they have a different problem. We are in completely different stages of growth so $3 Billion will probably go a long way for us than $3 Billion there because the incremental improvement per dollar is high here.

I think we have completely different views on the governors role. So in your view, what is the governor's job if he shouldn't really be too concerned with education, security, healthcare or economy since the situation in Nigeria is bad to begin with?

They should just share the allocation and go home?
