WHO SHALL REPLICATE LATEEF JAKANDE ? written by Mazi Odera POg JP.

Leadership should be centered around Men who made things Work ,not those who instituted massive Corruption,who upgraded decadence and drew blood with venomic needle through centrifugal innuendoes, especially majoring in Denominational preference ,Zonal prism while wearing dichotomy apparel,which tethered the Nation nay states at back of porcupine.

I simply wonder why no Governor crave to emulated the Governance of Late Gov Lateef JAKANDE ,former Governor of Lagos state,come with me 

"Lateef Kayode Jakande  (23 July 1929 – 11 February 2021) was a Nigerian journalist and politician who served as governor of Lagos State from 1979 to 1983 (43 Years ago), and later Minister of Works under the Sani Abacha military regime.

Governor of Lagos State

In office 1 October 1979 – 31 December 1983

Deputized by Rafiu Jafojo.

Key Achievements and Legacy:

Education: Abolished the shift system, building over 22,000 classrooms by 1983,within 4 Years ,a feat many can't repeat in 8 years.

Housing: Constructed thousands of low-cost housing units in areas like Abesan, Dolphin, and Ijaiye.

All the buildings are still housing many families , especially on low income and with some modern upgrades to befit modern taste.

Infrastructure: Initiated the metroline project and built numerous general hospitals, including Gbagada and Ikorodu.

Legacy: As described in this Facebook post and this YouTube video, he is remembered for his high-impact, pro-poor governance. "

Not because he built Low cost housing, but they still exist and housing millions of families today,whereas many other Governors are building choice individual Hotels and choice properties for selves with Patrimony of the masses. Even the masses refuses to compare the 4 fruitful years of Jakande to the 8 years or Ekperimacious Governance of today.

The Classrooms he built removed so many street urchins from the road where they constituted nuisance,that helped to mop off clandestine Almajaris from the Western roads.

He exorcised many viles which would've eaten the moral fabrics inherent in the virus called Street urchins or say Agbero in the West,a Sect many politicians empowered to continue using as weapon of Human collaterals in land grabbing, fighting wars which none want his or her family to be involved with ,even from afar ,making enemies and rendering utterly useless in less .

Metro lines he created is something no Governor in Nigeria wants to venture,even as that is serious alternative to transport citizens from Point A to point X in record time at cheaper rate,yet nobody wants to repeat it because they lark vision.

His General Hospital is where anyone in Lagos can get assured medicals in a very cheap price ,they have quality professionals and the buildings are well maintained yet,Lagos seem to forget such a great man in a hurry.

LATEEF is light years ahead in reality.

Until masse starts comparing the days of good Governance meted to us against the vitriolic leadership we are getting,we shall continue to run in circles.
