Why Nigerians should runaway from Buhari(Part 1)

Few days ago, I was reading about Prof.. Ambrose Folorunsho Ali and Chief Lateef Jakande as governors of Bendel and Lagos state respectively. From 1979 -83 Alli built 600 schools,  abolish school fees, established college of educations, teachers college in  Ekiadolor near benin, Agbo, Warri and 3 other polytechnics, he also started the Bendel State University which is now Ambrose Ali University. He went further to establish roads, hospitals and created thousands of employment.

On the other side, Chief Jakande became the governor of Lagos State in 1979 and immediately focus on the poor and less privilege in Lagos by building 30,000 apartment which you can still see in Amuwo Odofin, Ipaja, Dolphin Estate, Epe, Surulere,  Ikorodu,  Badagry, Abule-Nla, Iba and so on. He went further to build schools in all the neighbourhood and provide free education.

Jakande also went much further to establish Lagos State University  (LASU) , built 23 health care across the state and completion of General Hospitals in Gbagada and Ikorodu.
Jakande also built luxury apartments for Lagos  State Government, open up areas like Lekki Pennisula, VGC and the likes. He was also very successful in constructing roads and job creation.

Jakande started the metro line rail project to facilitate mass transit(this project was truncated by the Buhari lead military regime)

In 1983 General  Buhari seize the power and truncated our democracy. Buhari sentence Prof Ali to 100 years imprisonment because he accuse him of taking government fund even though he only built one small house in Ekpoma all his life. On the other side, Mr Jakande also get his own jail term.

This is how Nigeria development was truncated and stopped growing.
Nigeria will have been much better and developed if Buhari did not truncate our democracy.

Wake up Nigeria. Get your PVC and send him back to Daura
