You mean chief looters

If Donald Duke wasn't inclusive then the list wouldn't have been complete

Jeez, you just spoiled everything with that number one. Mmmtssshheewww!!!!

Make I no talk

toocoded:
Jeez, you just spoiled everything with that number one. Mmmtssshheewww!!!!

is their any other better number one?

Make I dey here dey laugh till my people come for your head.

Have these reduce poverty,durable roads,better standard of living and improve governance?No.That is how the media,after collecting money will be writing false achievement of politicians.

I agree with the list.I could remember when ameachi was in PDP.he was the only governor they usually use to counter fashola of ACN then.I could remember nairaland thread like "Amaechi's port Harcourt".Immediately he tried to resist GEJ 16>19 permutations he became a bad governor to them.People are hypocrites.we will see truth 19>16 and we will be worshiping falsehoods 16>19.

These pictures are Photoshop to make them seem beautiful and some of them are non-existing.Those classrooms are not in public or private schools in Nigeria.Look at that Lebanese teacher sef.Mtshhh.

Amaechi? LOL. You are a joker

I concur with the list, Amachi is a phenomenal just that he's the APC politician that PDP hated the most
how about Lamido, okorocha and peter obi

those schools are all in Rivers may be you need to travel more. the foreigner you see their is one of the many indians initially contracted to manage those schools with a view of developing the local manpower

as much as I hate him Amaechi really did well as a governor in Rivers state. many families benefited in the teachers 13000 recruitment. he did a lot of roads, beautiful schools and hospitals, overseas scholarship and he rest. he really tried

False it a shame any of them are there only Fashola even that has alot of questions to answer dont settle for less. Leading or being a governor is more than just providing infrastructure you need to provide environment for business to thrive. Duke should have done more but he failed some part of Fashola managed to create jobs so I'll let him off however he was still lacking in many areas and in areas where he is a professional in. Many laws if he had introduced and made to work effectively would have changed Nigeria but he didn't follow it up.

Amaechi really tried in Rivers especially in health and Education. can you believe that all the public primary schools in Rivers state look like this
