This was a man who ruled Nigeria and one couldn't point to a particular region or state he was from; because he treated each region/states as one. Just imagine the way he handled the Nigerdelta militant issue and brought all worrying parties to the round table. I respect you sir even in death, unlike that Northern apologist occupying the seat for now! undecided

Happy birthday Mr. President. Since you left this world, particularly Nigeria our beloved country things have gone worst than ever. We dont know if it will get better, please if you see Abacha there tell him to stop sending money to us because the ones he sent before has been re-looted.

Something must be wrong with all of us, but for me, i dont know what that is.

Happy birthday again our best President.

Ask about his record in Katsina. (Only Governor to leave surplus funds even after multiple projects )

As President
He declared his assets publicly
He said his election was flawed
He said if the Supreme Court removes him he'll leave immediately
He said give the Nigee Deltans what they want
And he did
He reduced oil prices
He allowed Sanusi to crash his brother's bank
He improved foreign reserves before falling sick


Cti28:
Happy birthday sir.

Wished you completed your tenure. Your home state Katsina has been reduced to a war Zone. We now have a nepotic and a clueless president. The Bokoharam you handled with an Iron fist, are now been pampered and offered first class treatment. The country is in shambles.

Can you please provide more details/references to the two highlighted claims?

As for his eight years as governor, leaving surplus funds, even if true, is a terrible measure of performance.
Terrible.
If he achieved anything, the legacy should be sustaining the state till now, just 10 years after he died, in the way that Jakande's legacy are still there after almost four decades that Barawo Bubu overthrew the second republic with his coup.
Do you understand that

eluquenson:
REVISITING SOME OF THE LATEEF JAKANDE'S GOVERNMENT ACHIEVEMENTS FROM OCTOBER 1979 TO DECEMBER 1983 (FOUR YEARS AND 3 MONTHS) IN LAGOS STATE

* His government established the Water Management Board and Waste Disposal Board on the 18th of August, 1980.

* His government constructed the Adiyan Water Works to increase water supply in the state to 18.16 million litres per day.

WHO SAYS 4 YEARS IN OFFICE IS NOT ENOUGH FOR MEANINGFUL ACHIEVEMENTS?

IT'S A FACT THAT 90% OF GOVERNORS IN NIGERIA SINCE 1999 WITH REVENUES AT THEIR DISPOSAL CANNOT BOAST OF A QUARTER OF THESE ACHIEVEMENTS EVEN WITHIN THEIR EIGHT YEARS IN OFFICE.
