Jakande At 90: 9 Achievements Of Alhaji Lateef Jakande As Lagos Governor by Realdeals(m): 7:12pm On Jul 24, 2019 |
1. The first governor to present a billion Naira state budget in Nigeria. 2. He phased out the shift system in Lagos schools in three months. He built functional classrooms to absorb those who only attend schools for three hours a day. 3. He opened up what is now known as the Lekki Corridor. 4. He built the biggest Housing estate by a state government at Abesan, along with five other estates. 5. He built LASU, LACOED, LASPOTECH and Technical schools to absorb the products of the free education policy. 6 He built General Hospitals and Health centers in all the five divisions of Lagos. He also upgraded General Hospital Ikeja to the Medical arm of LASU. 7. He created the Agric hub at Oko Oba. He also created similar hubs in Ikorodu, Epe and Badagry. 8. His government’s strict adherence to the party manifesto of Free Education, Free Health care, Rural integration and Housing for all, along with other UPN governors, created the largest pool of human resources in Nigeria. 9. He moved the Lagos State Government Secretariat from PWD to Alausa, which he built from scratch. He also lived in his personal house and drove his personal car throughout his tenure.

If you asked people who lived in Lagos during Jakande's tenure, they would tell you that he's the best ever governor of Lagos state, above military governor Maruwa who is second best ever. 61 Likes 4 Shares |

A visionair who was light years ahead of his time. He changed the landscape of lagos without making noise and without shoving the illusion of Mega City down our throats. Just a humble and pragmatic man who traveled overseas and brought back ideas to help the common man and changed lagos for the best. God bless Alhaji Lateef Jakande and God bless the Federal Republic of Nigeria. 58 Likes 6 Shares |

This man as a governor has achieved more than Obasanjo, Yaradua, Jonathan and Buhari as a whole. People still live in estate built by this man, but those president listed above only built estate for themselves and their family, their estate is not affordable. 29 Likes 2 Shares |

rentAcock: He also had a project for the Lagos Metroline network which was scrapped by General Buhari in 1985 and led to a loss of over $78 million to Lagosians..It was a project that would have solved the perennial transportation issue in Lagos till date but Buhari came in and cancelled it.. He is not like the yeye ones of today that rule Lagos..Baba Lateef Jakande did not have 1/10 of what the likes of the yeye ones of today had yet his legacies still stand tall till tommorow in Lagos cc omolola15 15 Likes 2 Shares |
