PoliticsRe: Politics In Nigeria: Why Reform Is So Hard In Ekiti State By The Economist by Chamack: 8:42am On Jun 28, 2014
emiye: The article was spot on. Fayemi's reform led to him stepping on too many toes ranging from teachers, to students, local govt workers, judiciary workers, unemployed/unemployable youths. In the last 3 years + ,I have observed all the 6 SW governors based on their quality of governance, and i can say Fayemi is the best administrator Of the six SW governors , but he was also the worst politician.

Fayemi's reform challenged the status quo too much that unsettled a lot, and gave Fayose a rabble rouser a blank political cheque, he simply harnessed the disgruntled elements and he won all across. Fayemi fought too many wars at the same time,when he should have left some till his second term, i am forced to wonder hw well he utilised his Phd in war studies.

PDP typically knows how to conserve the status quo, the business as usual which an average nigerian wants while nursing hope that the change will come maybe by a mystic force. Fayose will now eat booli and roasted corn on the street with them, he will ride okada on the streets, he will play football with them on the street, eventhough he will retire to his gubernatorial palace at the end of the day and a typical stocholm syndrome ravaged nigerian will be so happy, "suffering and smiling". off course he will fix a few roads which might be shoddy quality, install boreholes rather than build water plants and lay water pipeline to homes, it will be mediocre fix galore, he will not unruffle civil servants by plugging corruption loopholes, in order to build more political capital, he will dole out physical cash from the peoples treasury to a few , and thus, he will be praised to high heavens about how he is a lover of the common man. Now the PDP at the centre who shamefully , purposely and shockingly refuse to execute any capital projects in ekiti state will try to kickstart FG projects.

Well there is one thing you cant fault Fayemi for, his sincerity for the good of his people with an holistic approach.
If Fayemi is reforming and teachers,students and workers are complaining, that means the reform has a zero impact on the people he is governing. Using Fayemi and Andre Villa Boas as a case study, both were managers of men trying to change things overnight and the end of the day they lost out. Change is a gradual process. Fqyemi should have introduced his reform one after the other, that's what a good manager does. In the case of AVB he came to Chelsea introduced his own reform by sidling all the senior players and the end of the day they ganged up against him. In essence your reform should be people oriented.
SportsRe: Paul Pogba Vs Mikel & Onazi by Chamack:
I feel disappointed all this rubbish comment about John Mikel Obi, some are even saying that he should be benched, they forgot that when he was pulled out against USA that the midfield collapsed, Mikel might not score but one thing he does right is to maintain stability and also give accurate passes which no other play can do that. Just tired of all this armchair critics who does know about soccer and who can not even lace his shoes .

ijaw citizen: my guy you're funny and still tryna be funny. I guess Niger state people are now "Igbos by Igbo daughters" since Mariam Babangida (IBB's wife) is an Igbo daughter?

In the same way, Edo people are also igbos since Stella Odua married from there. Or maybe Imo is now Ijaw since Deizani Allison Madueke married from there.

I pity this ur pathetic Ben Onwuka behaviour, another "Igbos own Eastern region" freak, thats why Eastern region is dead an gone forever.
You seem to share the same trait with one chudi ozodi? Am I right?
