Seyi Makinde of Oyo is just a con artist with a very good PR team. However, the over packaging of Makinde by his PR team will be his downfall. People expect him to live up to the hype already created around him and he's already faltering. Already he goofed when he cancelled a road project Ajimobi awarded for 7billion with the claim that the money was padded only for him to award that same road project for 9billion.

Several times I said it would take a genius to fix the many challenges in Zamfara state in a span of a term even when, like everyone, I had no knowledge who would take over from the last administration. I was cautious in my claim because I didn’t want to create any excuse for the successor. We all wanted a leader with the wherewithal to end the senseless killings of innocent citizens that turned Zamfara into an abattoir for nearly a decade. We wanted a leader who would respect the rule of law and accommodate the interests of the citizens. We wanted a leader who would pay civil servants their entitlements; a leader who would reengage the abandoned 1400 employees; a leader who would pity our pensioners; a leader who would revive our youth empowerment programmes; a leader who would ease the citizens’ struggles to meet the challenge of the current inflation. We all craved for a leader who would provide an environment to chart a way forward with particular focus on governance, health and education in the state. Yes, we all wanted our lost glories restored. The emergence of Matawalle as the Governor of Zamfara State was a relief to the majority of the good people of Zamfara and well-wishers. It is evident that in the last four months of Matawalle’s administration the tables have begun to turn for good. Security has improved to a reasonable extent – a fact we cannot deny. And with the holistic measures taken, we are hopeful that peace has come to stay within the walls of Zamfara and environ. Governor Matawalle supports his initiatives on security by distributing two hundred and six (206) vehicles (Hilux) to all the security agencies in the state mainly to improve the capacity of conventional security outfits in crime detection, prevention and general surveillance. Until few months ago when Governor Matawalle provided ambulances to all the general treatment facilities in the state, I cannot recall when last I set my eyes on a functional ambulance in any of our local hospitals. In addition, there is a significant improvement in the procurement of drugs and other relevant medical equipment as against what used to be the practice when hospitals were not given any attention – even electricity bills were difficult to settle. I spoke with many health personnel in the state before I arrived at this. Within four months, Matawalle’s administration has revived the Zamfara Fertilizer Company which had been dormant for more than 10 years and this facility now has the capacity to produce 200 tons (about 10 trucks) per day. This effort was in recognition of agriculture as a key branch of the economy of Zamfara state, providing employment opportunities for a large percentage of our teeming youth – farming is our pride. The foreign scholarship scheme(?) – a story for another day. Matawalle has reengaged about 1400 abandoned employees and they now bask in the ambiance of their salaries. The new administration continues to attend to challenges associated with civil servants – from promotion, promotion arrears, payment of leave grants to payment of gratuity and other entitlements. We are witnesses to the positive news coming from Zamfara State Universal Basic Education (UBE) Board. The ongoing social intervention programme that supports women with certain amounts of money to start small scale business ideas is a commendable effort. Mens sana in corpore sano – a healthy mind lives in a healthy body. With these successes (I missed some achievements in this short piece) so far, less than 5 months of assumption, it is malicious to allege that Matawalle’s administration performs below par. It is unfair even to claim that this dministration lacks ‘focus’ or ‘direction’. In the history of Zamfara state, Bello Matawalle is the first Governor to appoint a Special Adviser on Strategy and Development. He is also the first to constitute a standing committee on Strategy and Development to lead the strategic planning process of the state’s Development Plan (in collaboration with the state’s Ministry of Budget and Economic Planning) and to ensure the implementation of ‘sector strategic plan’ and ‘medium-term plan’. This is because he recognises this area as one of his major areas of focus. In the past, like the letter ‘z’, Zamfara was always last in almost all indices of development including quality of life index. The last I checked, Zamfara is now the most improved state in IGR with +171% ahead of Sokoto, Kebbi, Osun, Ondo, Benue, Niger, Ekiti, Bauchi and Akwa-Ibom states (NBS 2019 Half-Year). I cannot defend the delay in the appointment of Commissioners, but I strongly believe that we have a focused government in place. Considering the messy system inherited, I don’t expect the new administration to solve all the challenges in less than 5 months. 4 Likes |

Oyo is all noise, no tangible movement. The PR machines are papering over the cracks. Oyo is poorer due to incessant loans which the Governor failed to clearly define what they are meant for. The much-touted free education is a sham - good intention, bad implementation. He seems not to have got a good handle on governance. This doesn't mean that APC candidate would have done better - he could have been worse. 5 Likes |

I don't know about other states mentioned because I haven't been there since they resumed... As for Imo state the governor is the right path. The pensioners are receiving their monthly pensions at their various homes, they don't have to travel to owerri and quee for days and comes back Empty handed. The workers are now receiving 100% salaries unlike when they were receiving 70% About 4000 Teachers are being recruited to Imo State Civil service and it's being done on transparent manner, you can do that at the comfort of your home. All the major roads in owerri metropolitan areas are reconstructed, rehabilitated and new ones are being constructed. The rural roads are also being carried along. There's no LGA in Imo State today that there's no construction going on. The environment is more cleaner than it was before may 29th. Security has improved 4 Likes |

Sultannayef:most got full salaries. Most. Few had discrepancies. Truth is more than 90% got full. He only paid 2 months of the arrears rochas owed. Right now his administration is owing 6 months. Add to the 28 months of the useless rochas, it's 34 months arrears. |
