This list is prepared to keep some states out, let them publish the complete list to combine the whole governors, Lagos will have trillions in debt owed by the stooge at alausa who is working for his salave master in the villa.

After Ibori (although a corruption don without rival), Delta State has been cursed with useless governors and it seems the people are comfortable with their mediocre performance.
Who am i to complain when the people affected are comfortable in their sufferings.

Apart from the Rivers state where Wike built roads and bridges, what did Okowa and Ayade do with their borrowed funds? Also, why isn't Lagos included in the list?

So you want it written as Sanwo-olu inherited debt from Sanwo-olu ?

Some people don't read, just rush to condem the same people they've been condemning since the election

Which stupid roads and bridges? If that justifies the exhesive borrowing, Okowa also built roads and bridges but that doesn't justify anything. Wike and Okowa borrowed to fund campaigns which is criminal

Okezie Ikpeazu, Ifeanyi Okowa, Samuel Ortom, Ben Ayade and Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi ought to be tied to a big iroko tree, naked and flogged mercilessly with children singing and dancing in in a circle as they receive strokes of koboko.

Good question. Amaechi comes to mind. I think Ibori did the same for Yaradua.

Delta State have no business accumulating any debt given the federal allocation to the State.

Damnnn

Ayade ought to be stoned to death, man clearly had no other mission than to go bleed his state of their money.

Had it been he was chanced, he would have sold the state to the highest bidder.

I have also noticed that the Lagos Ibadan express media are now changing targets, focussing on the SS to denigrate them at every instance since the Okuama incident in the SS.

This list was prepared to paint the SS in bad light.

I can bet my money on it, you're either from Anambra, Abia or Imo state

Bad leaders
