Are Acn Governors Over Hyped? Are They Different From The Usual Naija Politician by werepeLeri: 1:15pm On Oct 07, 2011
Can someone give me a helping hand here.

Are ACN governors saints and devoid of the usual camaraderie of ubiquitous stealing and monolithic brouhaha resulting in parochial and flatulent knack for pilfering of public funds?

Fashola just opened a 115m ramp built at 2.5bn Naira.

Discuss.

When he's paying the likes of you, Eko-Ile (iragbiji-ile), seanet02 and others here on nairaland to sing his praises, you would say that, wouldn't you?

The man has made a point. Respond to that. N2.5 billion for a 115m off-ramp computes at N25 billion per kilometre ($83 million per kilometre) or N22 million per metre. GRAND THEFT, LARCENY, RABID CORRUPTION AND RAPE are afoot, have been since 1999, and it's getting worse, covered by a thin veneer of co-ordinated and carefully orchestrated media hype.

Fashola is one of the most corrupt Nigerians alive. He's right up there with his gang leader, "Bola Ahmed Tinubu" and James Ibori. He's stolen or permitted to be stolen, far more than ANY other public official in the history of Nigeria. You will find out how bad it is when he leaves office. Mark my words.

Lucky Igbinedion nko. I am yet to meet anyone from Edo state who has anything good to say about Lucky. Nobody, not one person. At least for Fashola, many people love him and believe that he is performing better than his peers, but for Lucky it was the opposite. Before you diss Fashola and say that he is the worst, always remember Lucky.
Re: Are Acn Governors Over Hyped? Are They Different From The Usual Naija Politician by dayokanu(m): 8:22pm On Oct 07, 2011
Maybe we should pray for more corrupt governors like ACN's Fashola instead of the PDP ones who use 940m to RENOVATE 10 primary schools, Not build from scratch Renovate.

Or were we not alive when OBJ and PDP used $16b to purchase darkness?

The fact is that u can't the quidity of peoples mind from the confabulations that go on in this nugatory juvenile site. When the pdp leaders flunked the masses, faulte de mieux, the hapless populace ousted them, resting their kismet in the hands people(acn politicians) who simulated saints. But, today any pragmatic man will apprise that from the little they can decipher from the antecedents and demeanour of this acn governors; it wouldn't be fallacious to posit that they're no better than debacles. This unscrupulous politicians have, from their recent miens, unabashedly vacillated from the mellifulous campaign promises that they greeted the people with, and the proclivity of them reminiscing the masses is serendipitous. In all, we have to place our plights in the hands of god and doggedness.

ACN governors are not different from PDP governors or UPN governors or NPN governors. All our leaders are fucckup, this is why Nigeria is on a dusty floor today.

ACN governors are just lucky to have someone like Gov Fashola on their side.
Gov Fashola isn't perfect. Without any doubt he has a lot to learn, but God knows that he's trying his best.
Many Nigerians voted for ACN governors during the last election simply because they wanted someone that had something in common with Gov. Fashola, and absolutely nothing else.

Side Note: if Gbenga Daniel and Akala go down, i'm 100% sure that Tinubu will also go down.
It will be a balanced trade btw the 2 parties.
There is no way Jonathan (PDP) will sell off 2 governors from his party without bringing down another big wig from an opposition party.
It may not be clear at the moment, but mark it down< whatever happens to Daniel and Akala will determine the future of Tinubu.
Re: Are Acn Governors Over Hyped? Are They Different From The Usual Naija Politician by ektbear: 2:29am On Oct 08, 2011
Hard to speak in generalities about all ACN governors, but Fashola is probably amongst the best governors naija has right now. Oshiomhole is supposed to be very good. And I know that my own governor (Fayemi) is way better than his predecessor.

This is 50% of the current ACN governors. So at least 50% of the ACN governors are performing.

How many parties have 50%+ of their governors widely liked and viewed as performers?

PDP does not.
Re: Are Acn Governors Over Hyped? Are They Different From The Usual Naija Politician by Beaf: 2:29am On Oct 08, 2011
To sum up, by every indication, they are the same or worse (with a strong bias to "worse").
Re: Are Acn Governors Over Hyped? Are They Different From The Usual Naija Politician by werepeLeri: 10:13am On Oct 08, 2011
In four years time - we shall have their records- but from all indications and visual appraisals, they are worse than every other form of Nigerian politicians.

Fashola, Fashola, Fashola - spare me- this is an over hyped homo sapien.
Re: Are Acn Governors Over Hyped? Are They Different From The Usual Naija Politician by Gbenge77(m): 11:01am On Oct 08, 2011
Acn governors themselves are not saints,but even at that,they have apparently outperformed their counterparts fromĀ  other parties,
Re: Are Acn Governors Over Hyped? Are They Different From The Usual Naija Politician by Baawaa(m): 11:06am On Oct 08, 2011
from all indications Fashola is unique among our leaders!!Fashola is not saint nor perfect but he is different.Fashola works really helped ACN in d last general elections
Re: Are Acn Governors Over Hyped? Are They Different From The Usual Naija Politician by EvilBrain1(m): 11:35am On Oct 08, 2011
Fashola is extremely popular in Lagos. Some people disagree with some of his actions (like the Lekki toll road) but nobody outside the PDP can deny that he's a fantastic governor. The best performing politician in nigeria. A1

Somebody already mentioned Fayemi who's also doing well. C4

I get mixed reports about Oshiomole in Edo. Some people love him, some can't stand him. The impression I have is that he's doing a decent though unspectacular job. Though it can't be difficult to outshine someone as useless as Lucky Igbinedion. C5

Its too early to say anything about the other ACN governors. Lets give them another year or so.

The best PDP governor is probably Amaechi. I'm deducting points because he should really be doing better considering the insane amount of oil money at his disposal. C5

I'm not sure who's the worst. I don't know enough about the boondock states to judge. If I had to pick one I'd probably say Silva of Bayelsa for the same reason I downgraded Amaechi. F9

ACN politicians, They are all good pretenders who are only pursuing personal interest and capitalizing on Nigerians curiosity for a change of government and will even do worse when in full power!!!,
Re: Are Acn Governors Over Hyped? Are They Different From The Usual Naija Politician by bashydemy(m): 11:45am On Oct 08, 2011
if someone is saying Fashola is worst and corrupt then am gonna vote in another corrupt Governor like him shikenna
Re: Are Acn Governors Over Hyped? Are They Different From The Usual Naija Politician by werepeLeri: 12:01pm On Oct 08, 2011
Fashola's projects are too elitist.

He seems to romance with the rich and mighty and wants their money and lifestyle to improve.

He is not even a socialist. He is not people oriented. Have you ever heard him saying things Awolowo, Balarabe Musa etc says?

He loves the rich.
Re: Are Acn Governors Over Hyped? Are They Different From The Usual Naija Politician by mrofficial(m): 12:12pm On Oct 08, 2011
He inflate the contract money and e do am or He inflate the contract money and e no do am. Choose one.

Well, I know you can't please everyone. But I believe say Fashola get majority vote.
Re: Are Acn Governors Over Hyped? Are They Different From The Usual Naija Politician by daphil: 12:50pm On Oct 08, 2011
I would say they are birds of the same feathers. Though Fashola 59, Amaechi 55, Jang 52, Rochas 50 and Enugu guy 55 are all trying.
BTW, who says Fashola is a saint? He is just diplomatically corrupt!

For now in the south west, this is how they stand putting their prudence and projects delivery into considertion:
Fashola 59
Mimiko 50
Fayemi 40
Aregbesola 35
Amosun 34
Ajumobi 30

You got it wrong. This is how it should be:

Fashola 59
Mimiko 50
Fayemi 40
Amosun 0
Ajumobi 0
Aregbesola useless

In the year 2000 - I led a team of Land Surveyors to survey the Ikotun Ijegun road with a view to re construct it. I heard it was then re constructed, so, what could have happened to the road again? Or was it never re constructed?
