Governors' Mid-Term Review: A SPECIAL Report


28 May 2013

Governor's assessment



PROLOGUE



A Challenged Stewardship



BY YEMI AJAYI

Given the many years of neglect occasioned by prolonged military rule, governance in Nigeria has essentially been turned into what a governor once described as “brick and mortal democracy”. By the time the military left in 1999, many parts of the federation were suffering from an acute infrastructure deficit. Roads were bad; power epileptic, while the education and health care sectors were in a shambles.



However, 14 years since the return of democracy, efforts by leaders at various tiers of government have been geared towards arresting the decay and coming up with a regeneration programme that will give the people, for whose wellbeing the government exists, a new lease of life. This reason largely informed the tradition in Nigeria whereby a government is assessed by its ability to provide basic infrastructure such as good roads, potable water, electricity as well as guaranteeing efficient and effective education and health care systems.
