- Which of them made money from government? - Tinubu and Atiku

- Which of them have corruption cases hanging over their heads? - Tinubu and Atiku

- Which if them have shown prudence to manage public funds? - Obi

- Which of them built hospitals and improved the health sector when in government? - Obi

The Answer is clear. Obi is different.

The 4 main contenders are all the same. The difference is that one has shown that, if anything, he has the capacity and competence to perform judging from previous positions held.



Modified :
Kwankwaso built numerous hospitals and schools in kano.
Tinubu also built hospitals and schools during his time. So Obi did nothing special here even Ikpeazu and Ortom are building hospitals and schools but do you consider them good governors
Obi hid state money in his own bank to generate interest which he pocketed while returning the principal amount and you are hailing him .

Kwakwanso isn't in the race unfortunately.

I challenge you to mention the name of the hospital Tinubu built.

I would respond to the rest of your gibberish when you name the hospital Tinubu built. bTW, Obi Built Dr Joe Nwiloh Heart Centre, Anambra.

Prior to his (ASIWAJU) assumption into the office of governor in Lagos State in 1999, he constituted a “Transition Working Group” to look into the health situation in the state. Some of those which constitute a model list of achievements in ASIWAJU’s dispensation in first quater include:

1) Control of HIV / AIDS primarily via the Lagos State AIDS Control Agency (LSACA)

2) Roll Back Maleria Programme – Free Maleria treatment, distribution of ITNs etc.

3) National Programme on Immunization

4) School health Programme

5) Control of Tuberculosis DOTS regimen.

6) Hospital based 24 hours free emergency services (LASEMS)

7) Pre hospital ambulance service accessed from the 123 emergency hot lines (LASAMBUS)

cool Marine Rescue Unit.

9) Drug Quality Control Laboratory

10) Task Force on Counterfeit, Fake drugs and Unwholesome Processed Foods.

11) Private Hospital Registration Authority

12) Free Health Programme

13) Blindness prevention Programme

14) State Environmental health monitoring Unit

15) Rural health ambulance boat Service.

16) Drug Manufacturing Unit

17) Continuing Medical Examination Programme.

18) Completion of the abandoned hospital projects at Akodo and Igando

19) The Eye Clinic, LASUTH

20) Rehabilitation of two blocks at the Lagos Island Maternity Hospital. Tinubu converted the Ikeja general hospital into LASUTH (Lagos State University Teaching Hospital) and it became a standard for other hospitals across the country, he also built additional 49 primary healthcare centers across the state and refurbished 9 of them. He upgraded 5 hospitals in different local governments into general hospitals and equipping them. Healthcare access was free for children below 16 and adults above 60 and free surgical sessions for many children. Tinubu also made it easier for private sector investments in healthcare and that translated to having more private hospitals in Lagos to meet the rising populations.

You still haven't shown me where he built a hospital. All these are just programs that didn't have any effect as healthcare in Lagos is still mostly private sector driven.

What sense is there in neglecting already built infrastructure and building new ones when it makes more sense in rehabilitating and upgrading infrastructures already on ground. It someone like you that will say Nigeria has no maintenance culture. I don't think you should be displaying such low level of thinking.

Obi did not satisfactorily explain the source of his wealth. Or better still, tell us how Obi became wealthy? How did he go from a common trader and son of a trader to a billionaire?



Obi was prudent? How? Do you need Keynesian economics? You don't save money when you haven't met the basic needs of your state. That is not prudence. That is incompetence. You save money because you can't think of what to use it for. And it is not prudence when you leave over 120 billion naira in debts and liabilities.



So, building hospitals in the 21st century is an achievement? Tinubu improved existing hospitals and reduced the health burden of Lagos state.




Your Obi cannot thrive in the 21st century. We need a proactive and great thinker in the person of Tinubu who can spot problems and solve them.




Imagine Lagos state under Obi. It would still be dependent on Federal allocation because Peter Obi would rather save money than look for sources of money so as to embark on modern infrastructures.

Tinubu did not build tertiary hospitals or tertiary schools or colleges. Stop the lies and eat your corn in peace.


How secured was Lagos during Tinubu's tenure compared to Obi? How did Lagos schools ranked in WAEC, NECO, and JAMB compared to Anambra during Obi's tenure.


You criminals cannot continue to overrate the failure and worst governor of Lagos state in your head. It wouldn't change FACTs and STATISTICS.

Go back and read the post. Nigeria doesn't have enough hospitals. We don't need a president that will spend 8 years rehabilitating hospitals, despite increase taxes by over 300%>

Tinubu upgraded, Tinubu refurbished. I'm not talking about upgrades. Several healthcare facilities in Lagos are named after Tinubu. Yet he didn't start any hospital from scratch.

The same hospitals he upgraded were also upgraded by Fashola, Ambode and now Sanwo-Olu.

Who would build new hospitals?

The list you sent didn't include a hospital Tinubu built. Stop quoting me cause you have nothing to sell. It took less than 1 billion naira to build a world-class hospital in 2003. Even my local government chairman can rehabilitate hospitals

Nigeria is a federating state with each state having autonomy to develop the state and improve the standard of lives of the citizens of the state.

Your state should first be discussed before talking about the FG.

How has your state impacted you, the state and the country?
