I have painstakingly verified all the data herein. It is sacrilegious to equate Peter Obi (PO) to any Governor in his generation,

I have decided to lay before all Nigerians the TRUTH by making a comparative performance analysis of Lagos & Anambra using key development indicators
Walk with me.

Did I hear you say, oh, Mr AY, it is unfair to compare Lagos state with Anambra?

Well, You may be right; after all, why would anyone compare?
So here, we will be looking at @officialABAT's performance (2003-2007) & @PeterObi’s performance (2007-2014) using key development indicators.

Everything I will be sharing is verifiable facts from verifiable sources.

Below are growth indicators often used by development economists to access low-middle income countries;
1.) Gross National Income per Capita
2.) Life Expectancy
3.) Human Development Index (HDI)
4.) Health Index
5.) Educational Index
6.) Income Index

My data source is from the renowned Global Data Lab (GDL) - an independent data & research centre at the institute of Management Research, Radboud University, Netherlands
globaldatalab.org

GDL started compiling data in 2003; hence BAT's Performance is evaluated from 2003
1.) Global National Income Per Capita
BAT(2003-2007):

In 2003 at 8.887 & in 2007 at 9.218. Had a growth of 3.72% Lagos(2007-2014):

In 2007 at 9.218 & in 2014 at 9.303. Had a growth of 0.92%

Anambra(2007-2014): In 2007 at 8.823 & in 2014 at 9.220. Had a growth of 4.50% ✅

2.) Life Expectancy
BAT(2003-2007): In 2003 at 55.40 & 2007 at 56.80. Had a growth of 2.54%
Lagos(2007-2014): In 2007 at 56.81 & in 2014 at 58.21. Had a growth of 2.46%

Anambra(2007-2014): In 2007 at 53.55 & in 2014 at 58.97. Had a growth of 10.12% ✅

3.) Human Development Index (HDI)

Lagos(2007-2014): In 2007 at 0.630 & 2014 at 0.644. Had a growth of 5.40%

Anambra(2007-2014): In 2007 at 0.569 & in 2014 at 0.659. Had a growth of 15.82% ✅

4.) Health Index
BAT(2003-2007): In 2003 at 0.545 & in 2007 at 0.566. Had a growth of 3.85%
Lagos(2007-2014): In 2007 at 0.566 & in 2014 at 0.588. Had a growth of 3.89%

Anambra(2007-2014): In 2007 at 0.516 & in 2014 at 0.600. Had a growth of 16.30% ✅

5.) Educational Index
BAT(2003-2007): In 2003 at 0.645 & 2007 at 0.634. Had a DECLINE of -0.011%
Lagos(2007-2014): In 2007 at 0.634 & 2014 at 0.702. Had a growth of 10.73%

Anambra(2007-2014): In 2007 at 0.560 & in 2014 at 0.686. Had a growth of 22.5% ✅

6.) Income Index
BAT(2003-2007): In 2003 at 0.647 & 2007 at 0.697. Had a growth of 7.73%
Lagos(2007-2014): In 2007 at 0.697 & in 2014 at 0.710. Had a growth of 1.86%

Anambra(2007-2014): In 2007 at 0.637 & 2014 at 0.697. Had a growth of 9.42% ✅

From the above six indicators used in measuring public governance performance in low-middle income countries, PO outperformed Lagos of Fashola & BAT.

Factoring IGR, investments in Lagos since colonial days & the civil war, it is safe to say PO is in a league on his own
So comparing Lagos with Anambra in terms of the globally accepted developmental indicators is an insult to the Anambra state & the leadership of @PeterObi

As if that were not enough, let's look at the departing gift Peter Obi presented to Anambra state & BAT to Lagos state
To prove that his education at Harvard Business School, Kellog School of Management, Oxford & Cambridge weren't just for fun,

PO, in his handover note, left local & foreign investment savings in billions of Naira & cash savings for the state, as can be seen as attached & verified

These are funds Peter Obi could have easily stolen like many governors in Nigeria shamelessly do.

Show me any servant leader in Nigeria's history, at least since 1999.

Meanwhile, He did all of this and still chose to deprive himself of ALL entitlements as an ex-governor.

In contrast with BAT, He left 27 billion nairas in the treasury & a whopping 100billion naira debt, for which his successor increased to over 400 billion nairas.
The self-serving leader also proposed huge remuneration for himself.
