The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, has stated that the Lagos State Governor, Babatunde Fashola cannot be regarded as the best governor in Nigeria.
The PDP Publicity Secretary, Olisa Metuh while speaking with newsmen in Abuja said there are other governors who had performed better than Fashola, hence it would be wrong to conclude that Fashola is the best Nigeria Governor.
According to him, “I disagree with the view that Fashola is the best governor in Nigeria. There are PDP governors who did better than Fashola in terms of delivering dividends of democracy to their people. Have you been to Akwa Ibom, Jigawa, Cross Rivers and some other states that are being ruled by PDP governors?” Metuh asked.
The party chieftain noted that the seven governors who decamped from the PDP performed better than Fashola and that the party was still proud of them despite their feud with the Bamangar Tukur-led executive.
He said, “The seven governors that said they had left the PDP are all great achievers. They have done well in their respective states and we are proud of them.
“The only grievance we have against them is that if they express the same commitment with which they transformed their states to the PDP, our party would have been greater.
“How can you say Fashola has performed better than our governors? I think the problem is that we don’t go to the media to shout. You need to visit those states and see the kind of development I am talking about.”
