if I had to choose. I would have loved to choose Hamzat. he was the brain behind fashola rapid development in Lagos as his commissioner for works


the guy really have eyes for design. I learnt he's an architect

Hemdy4jazz:
Yes I know, gullible blind folks can only impress with governor Ambode, this dude do nothing.
Let me tell you all if you see any government that center his core project around road infrastructure, that government is irresponsible. There are many critical sectors to touch. But our governor would continue to build road and bust stop for the high service and perhap, the only clever way to siphon public found.

Let me educate you more.

Ilubinrin housing project comes to my mind. I list more expected that our governor would build more than what Fashola started but Ambo not only neglected this project, he sent the contractors away and if not Ooni intervention as a client to the contractors more business owners would have been in there grave now.

Another bad governance perpetrated by Ambode is issue of cardiac center in gbagada general hospital. Fashola started hospital revolution across LGA in Lagos state, Built category C hospital in these LGA Back to general hospital in gbagada, cardiac center is one of the promising project in this GGH. Fashola invested heavily in people's health care. Not only built befitting structure to this hospital but constructed concrete road network that start from inside the hospital to Medina estate to the end point along oshodi expressway. Only God knows what happened and the whole system stopped working after the commission. This might have been a short coming by Fashola himself, I expected Ambode to see into this problem. Despite several calling, our governor did not listen a bit.

Light Rail Gauge is another example. I know this is where most of our people from the other side reside. As a responsible governor and flag bearer agent of APC I expect Ambo to champion this course not only to regain dwindling APC supporter in that axis but for the love of humanity. People are suffering from traffic in this area. Oga Ambode didn't commit enough to this project for the reason only himself understand.

In conclusion, I feel the arrogance of our governor have something to do with settling a score with Fashola. It is no longer a news that Fashola fired this dude for financial mismanagement when he was account general in Lagos state and this is the reason why he doesn't want to touch any of Fashola uncompleted project. I have never see a governor that is arrogant dump and selfish like this dude call Ambode

We weren't saying this 2months ago, but all of a sudden we have turned blind eyes to all the futuristic projects currently on going.

As a Lover of Lagos, I can easily mention a few...

*Is it the heavy investment in our water ways?, trying to bring alive water mode of transportation.

*or the reinvention of our road system of transportation

*or our Rice farm as a state?

* the introduction of LRU

* the beautification of the state

* building out tourism nature

* building roads and bridges

* I can keep going on and on

* there is no where in Lagos you would say you aren't feeling the presence of the government.

Now all of a sudden he is not good enough.

If he is not the most performing, he would be the second most performing governor in Nigerian so what changed?

Just because of Visionscape and pothole he is now the devil haba let us try and have conscience.
Let him spend 8years and if he didn't achieve what is expected of him then we can hang his political career. Give him the needed time to perform.

mabelly:
What exactly is his crime or offence. Is it that he is not performing or that he didn't hand over the treasury of Lagos to a few privileged people.

Would honestly like to know what he did wrong.

mabelly:
And I keep reading over and over what they claiming to be Ambode's crime, still I can't find it.

* visionscape
* bad roads.(not forgetting that he has touched more inner roads than any governor.)

Are these enough reasons to vote out a well acclaimed performing governor?

Oh please they should just shut up.

With the current works and plan of Ambode, I feel a second term will solidify his performance thus far. Rather than electing another governor who will come stop and start everything all over again. Then be a case of 1step forward 2 steps backward.

I am one of those who didn't believe in Ambode when he was elected has Governor, I criticised him but was surprised to what he was able to do in relatively short time. Yet some people are saying he hasn't done as much as fashola forgetting fashola spent 8years and he has only spent 3½years .

If Ambode should lose the APC primaries, and he decided to decamp to PDP, I will set aside my preference for APC as a party and decamp with him just so he wins the governorship election.

Wiseandtrue:
What do you want one of the best governor Lagos has ever produced to say

Na work that one know! He hardly play dirty politics

I knew that a day like this will come

If Tinubu get shame self, he won't ask Fashola for help!

Fashola does not play with the pigs in the mud

Olohunjedalo:
You don’t know Fashola . Lmao .
He won’t say jackshit to the public

otokx:
If Lagosians truly do not want Ambode then he can throw in the towel but it will be sad if his replacement is not a Christian or is Lagos now a 1 term state?

Hotfreeze:
Osinbajo was begging for Ambode. When they told Osinbajo what Ambode did to APC in Lagos, they pleaded that Ambode be allowed to contest in the Lagos primaries.

As an individual that you are, you have more chances of winning the APC primaries than Ambode.

blackgold90:
You are too ignorant, just because a greedy Tinubu is not getting money the way he should get ambode has suddenly be an inefficient man.

So what happens if Tinubu dies tomorrow there will be no masterplan for Lagos State. And about masterplan ,Lagos have been federal capital and I don't think there is no governors who will come that will not work well considering resources that is available.


Don't paint ambode evil because of greedy tinubu.


This was how adedibu was lording it over Oyo state before he died.


If I was Gov. Ambode I will just stop appealing or begging anyone, I will just enjoy the few months of my tenure and go..... A time will come when a difficult governor will come aND rout the whole system.


Until then stop calling a working governor names.

davodyguy:
She should shut up abeg.

I work for both the LGA and the the state.

The main challenge they the LGA and LCDA chairmen and Chairwomen have with Ambode is over allocation and nothing more.

The governor used to be part of the LGA for many years and very conscious of the corruption. LGA chairmeb that can't even fix roads in their wards, yet the governor has been doing it for them, covering their inadequacies. Come and challenge me. I'm talking based in facts

Taich:
Thanks so much, a least I can read some unbiased stuffs online about Ambode saga.

laseni:
I do not agree with you that Fashola was transparent with project costs when he was the Governor.
Ambode is not perfect but he has done reasonably well to deserve a 2nd term. We should not call a dog a bad name in order to hang it.

bebanky:
Lagos state has never been open as per their expenditure on capital projects right from the begining.

laseni:
While I might not know what he has done in Housing, I know Ambode did a good job of building roads in hitherto forgotten areas; particularly Alimosho.
.

laseni:
It would be most unfair to start comparing Fashola and Ambode's administration because they both did not have the same resources.
