Governor
Godswill Akpabio (Akwa Ibom, PDP):
The “Uncommon man” as popularly called by the people in the state is in no doubt
an outstandingly performer governor. Akpabio used his experience while serving as
a Commissioner in three key Ministries in Akwa Ibom State to turn around an hitherto sleepy state into a centre of
attraction in the nation. Chief Akpabio wasted no time in salvaging the many
abandoned projects in the state and completing it on schedule. His massive investments in infrastructure, sports,
education and youth empowerment are well documented.
In the area of rural electrification,
the achievement of the Akpabio administration has been unprecedented. Over 1600
Communities have been linked to the national grid. This has raised electricity
coverage in the State to not less than 85 per cent. He delivered on his youth empowerment programmes which have
adequately engaged a lot of people. The Akwa Ibom Carnival, the Akwa Ibom
township stadium, the Uyo International Airport, the Akwa Ibom Christmas Carol

Ibrahim
Shema (Katsina, PDP):
Ibrahim Shema outstanding performance during his time in office as the governor
was the best Katsina state has ever witnessed. Just like Yar’adua, he left a
healthy bank balance for his successor and is the only governor in Nigeria
today that left leaving office without any form of debt hanging on his
administration. The former governor implemented a people-friendly programmes in
the state, which many people in the state benefitted from. one area where he
has been praised constantly is, his immense contributions to the state’s
agricultural sector. Katsina state is know to be constituted majorly by farmers,
Shema used his connections in Abuja as the former deputy chairman of the
Peoples Democratic Party, to team up
with the agricultural ministry and various development partners in ensuring
that farmers in the state got the right help and incentives from the federal
government to assist grow their businesses.

Sullivan
Chime (Enugu, PDP): A gentleman to the core and a silent
achiever. A conservative politician, who is known for less talk and more actions.
Chime embarked on a major infrastructural drive to change the face of Enugu and
he has been commended by analysts for a job well done despite his health
challenges which almost ruined his government.. He is not the type of man you
find on media houses or newspapers everytime. Unlike his counterparts from
around the country who spend huge funds in the media celebrating their
achievements or gather VIPs to commission projects executed. He is most times sees
in Enugu conducting the affairs of the state and indeed delivering his promises
to his people. He is also not known for touring the entire nation looking for
recognization or relevance unlike some of his colleagues.

Rabiu
Kwankwaso (Kano, APC): One keeps wondering what still keeps this man in the good eyes of the
people of Kano state. This is evident in the last general elections in the state
where people of the state voted massively for his party Kwankwaso
is synonymous to excellence. That is why his famous ‘Kwankwasiya
movement’ in the commercial city of Kano is very popular and has a
large number of followers. Kwankwaso has delivered in all fronts to his people.
His policies were geared towards the betterment the less privileges in the
society and they were effectively implemented to the latter. Kwankwaso is one
politician that can comfortably walk the streets of Kano without fear of
harassment from the residents. Although Boko Haram insurgents terrorised the
state for a period of time during his second term in office, his efforts to curb
the growing threats by the Boko Haram terrorist group didn’t also go unnoticed.
