Well, I am glad Steven saw what I saw, when I moved to Ogun State after 35 years in the UK. Bottom line, Ogun State is an economic power house, in terms of land mass, Ogun humbles lagos state, Ogun is also the gateway to not only Lagos, it is also the main gate way from Lagos to other states of the federation. In comparison to Lagos, Ogun is a natural resource rich State, we share the deepest coastal sea shore with Ondo State(A big shame we lost the Dangote Refinery to Lagos State). Real Estate opportunities are enomorous, land prices have certainly gone through the stratosphere. In the sphere of education, i believe Ogun State has the greatest concentration of Universities compared to any other state in the federation. In terms of industrialisation, Ogun has the largest concentration of industries in the entire federation. From Sagumu through Kobape right down to Abeokuta, new industries are springing up daily. To crown it all, like Lagos State, we have been fortunate enough to have his Excellency Dapo Abiodun as our current Governor. Prince Abiodun has quietly without any extravagance continued the fantastic foundation works laid down and brilliantly executed by our own Jagaban, Senator Ibikunle Amosun. More grease to our dear Govenor's elbows, Long live the Gateway State, may father lord continue to bless our beloved state with visionary leaders that will continue to add value to our state.
You have said it all
@@StevenNdukwu Thanks young man, you are doing a brilliant work, more grease to your elbows, stay safe and blessed.
You seem to be a benefactor of the current government of Ogun state. Ogun state has if not the worst infrastructure in Nigeria for a state close to Lagos. No roads, no water, No light, nothing at all
You must be delusional if you think the governors are really that helpful
@@enabulujames7066 In the 1st instance, Rome was not built in a day, like the Govenor said, we are too impatient as a people. I have been in the state close to 14 years now, I have seen the transformation of Ogun State over these past couple of years. Yes there are areas of concerns that needs to be worked on, however, lots of positive vibes coming out from the gateway state. No state has pipe borne water, light is a function of the Federal Government, the road networks are gradually being improved upon. This Govenor started off concentrating his efforts upgrading the key point roads in and out of Ogun State, in particular he is building the roads leading to the industrial heart lands of the state. In Abeokuta where I reside, some key roads within the core abeokuta township are being upgraded. Kenta idi aba, Sagamu to Abeokuta, Elite Road, Idi Aba to ajebo right through to Ibadan express Road currently being upgraded. The Govenor cannot do it all, in the midst of limited scarce resources. Stay the course if you live in Ogun State, and most importantly "Patience is a virtue". Am I a direct beneficiary of the current administration in terms of employment? Certainly not, just a humble farmer who lives within the gateway state, neuther am i a card carrying member of APC.
I'm an African American (with Nigerian heritage) I want to visit, plant roots, and invest in Nigeria. How can I connect with you and/or create partnerships with people in Nigeria who are already investing? I don't have the money today but I will in the future (my channel is a testament to my conviction). I want to see Nigeria succeed. Stay up Steven.
Lol do your research man. Wouldn't want you to burn your money
This is mind blowing. For real!!!! People like you do the work to let people know the good happening in their communities and country.
We are so tired off only negative stories!!!!!!
Thanks for doing this 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Excellent video 🙌🏾🙌🏾
U are already going places, I remember when u had under 3k subscribers. Well-done bro. Am very proud of you 💗.
Ogun state one of Nigerias best hidden gems ! I had a blast visiting last year
Wow
Nigeria really is a Powerhouse
Love from the Great Zimbabwe
IT IS (YORUBA REPUBLIC) INSIDE D COUNTRY CALLED NIGERIA NOT NIGERIA
Am a Ghanaian 🇬🇭. Steven, I agree with you the Ogun state - Abeokuta is underrated. I tell you, what this governor is doing, very soon Abeokuta will take over all the state capital in Nigeria. My next visit to Naija will be Ogun State.
Great content!!
Sujimoto always giving the vibes.😃
Total respect Sir.
I need the energy of that Suji guy ... Great job Steve 👍🏾
Suji is a billionaire o 😂😂😂😂
I swear I thought I was the only one who notice him
Thank you AT
I thought you and Steve were chilling together in Zimbabwe.
I so much love his enthusiasm. He's so passionate about his work. I admire that, honestly.
This is beautiful for a State like Ogun. Great work Governor.
Otta deserves some attentions!
Yes, Ado-odo/Otta and Ifo. if those two LGAs are touched, trust me The Ogun state governor will be rated alongside Lagos state governor.
He won't touch there..it seems all the government, disperse that side
Great work, governor? Lmao
@@richardomonuwagbale2318 why obasenjo
By the time the trains in Lagos start functioning, I don't see why people won't live in Ogun and work in Lagos....simply take the national rail to Lagos and connect to your destination.....ogun should be developed to discongest Lagos. Weldone Mr. Governor.
Majority of lagos workers lives in Ogun state Sango, Ibafo, Mowe, isheri magodo oloworoira ijaye to name a few
people have been doing this for two decades
@@babayanjuadetunji1627 lol....what is the percentage of people who live in these towns and work in Lagos and people actually live and work in Lagos? Put all these population together including those in Oyo is not even upto the population of Obalende. Lagos is extremely congested....decongesting it means other neighboring states have to be developed, that aside, on the other side, people can permanently leave Lagos to these states and still go to work in Lagos with the rail lines in operations on a large scale.
You're very correct that's why I bought land at itori papalanto train station because in the next 10years Lagos go hear am from Ogun state. Especially with this train thing.
As a Kenyan I must say these is what devolution is all about.The governor has done he is doing amazing job.Kenyans we must learn from Ogun state.Indeed Africa is rising..
U better dont conclude. They are showing fake face for u
@@oluyomisamuel6921 Are you saying this is fake?
@@nomahope3182 i tire o, maybe he thinks this is computer generated😂
@@oluyomisamuel6921 how sad must your life be that you cant see anything good?
@@oluyomisamuel6921, you have no shame. Keep on deceiving yourself that Nigeria is not moving forward. People like you can’t even do anything if voted to be a local government chairman. Sight…
Beautiful Ogun state. Thanks for sharing Steve 👍🏾
This is what good leadership is about.
God bless you Steven for doing this
I did my nysc in Abeokuta and I will say it a very nice place to be.
Good work Steven 👍👏🏽
Good job steven🥰🥰🥰🇳🇬You are really making us in diaspora to have a hope in our country.just keep the good work on , we need more of this positive content and vibes from home.🇳🇬
Love the direct employment approach. Locals citizens and businesses benefitting directly from the growth taking place in their communities. Kudos Ogun State
This is where I schooled. Federal government college Odogbolu. ♥️🇳🇬💪🏽🇳🇬
Great to see other states in Nigeria investing much in infrastructure.
Steve visit Ebonyi state, its transforming fast.
I’m highly impressed with Governor Dave Umahi. He’s done well for Ebonyi State..
Good job Steven for bringing Ogun State developments and good news to us all. Great Job Governor!!
Great job Steve. This is the kind of videos those of us in the diaspora want to see; the rest of Nigeria, not just Lagos and Abuja. We know there are great places and states outside Abuja and Lagos. This kind of video helps us make informed decisions about our plans for Nigeria - investments or coming back home.
Stay subscribed for more 🙏
I quite agree with you! But not only Steve Ndukwu's videos, and the consumption is not only for (Nigerians diasporans 😖)..
But for Nigerians at home and abroad to recognise that government is not only the presidency in Abuja, but it should be across states and local government areas!!
@@StevenNdukwu Sure
@@aframaco9491 Oga abeg no vex. I didn't mean that it's good for the diaspora only. Secondly, his videos give good details and enof info for business use. They are fit for such purpose. There maybe other such vloggers, I stick with him.
@@isoryte201 Too right! I Love Steve Ndukwu!!
I call him the Duke!
His videos are hard hitting, but beautiful and truthful!!
He’s the man of the people ❤❤❤❤❤
Ogun state is very underated 😂
I bought my land in 2020 here in Orilemo along Sagamu Interchange/ Abeokuta Express for 500k.
Today, to get a plot in same place, you will have between 2.5M - 3M depending on the seller.
To get to anywhere you are going in Nigeria by road , you must go through Ogun State.
Yes..pls what do you think about those estates along papalanto?
great work brother !!! congratulations for this amazing and informative video !
You mailed it once more
Thank you
Steven, you never disappoint!
Thank you for bringing Ogun State into our homes and minds!
I love sijimoto's passion.
Wow!!!
This is so beautiful!!
I’ve always been familiar to Ogun state cos my mum is from there and 90% of my education was there
It’s good to finally see the state receiving recognition!
But also they should not forget important but ignored places like ota
The road is quite bad and it’s a major road to other places
Thank you for this Steven 💜
And kudos! You met with the governor 🥳
Thanks for watching
This is really inspiring and what purposeful leadership is all about. Fantastic!
You are the MAN, for real. Your videos show Nigeria, and Africa, the true Nigeria and Africa. Your American brothas and sistas and all over the Diaspora are very, very proud of you.
Thanks for always watching
Thank you for promoting and documenting beautiful places in my state! Great content Steven 👍
👍👍
I love your content digging deep and bringing out to the world to see.
I am following the state development because of my interest in Estate development in the state. I followed Vbloggers focusing on the state and Oyo state. Sincerely,Ogun state is underrated. At the same time the past governors, before Amosu Administration, were to be blamed for lukewarm development in the state. They didn't do so much to harness the state closeness to Lagos.The present governor efforts to continue where his predecessor stopped should be appreciated especially in area of infrastructures. I particularly appreciate the dual carriage way that is being constructed along Agbara. It is quicker way to link Badagry expressway to other West Africa countries,instead of driving through Sango Ota to Oshodi -Apapa, in Lagos. Well done,Sir.❤️❤️❤️🇬🇧
Amosun did more than Abiodun in 4 years Abeokuta before Amosun is a village everything you are seeing now was done by Amosun
I love this governor. God bless him
That your host guy l, such high energy and passion! I’m convinced
Nigeria just needs to get her act together in electricity, all will be well.
Awesome video! We Nigerians are not paying attention to the good things going on. The country is changing, and growing, yet MANY people don't see it. The negative things going on has blinded people from noticing the SUBTLE changes that is happening. Everytime l zoom in to different states in Nigeria, l ALWAYS see new developments, that is barely mentioned in the news.
A lot of people may find it hard to believe. Nigeria is going to RISE and be a GREAT country, that one day the whole world would be talking about. Imagine, l saw an Indian lady in Nigeria, boldly said, you can become the richest man in the whole world from inside Nigeria. That is how much potential in Nigeria that is untapped.
25 years ago, when Dangote was just coming up, he used to say that, there is money flowing all over Nigeria and Africa. I thought he was crazy for saying that. Look at him now. He is the richest black man in the whole world. He saw what MOST people didn't see.
I would HIGHLY advice anyone who read this, to pay close attention, and seize the UNLIMITED OPPORTUNITIES, which unfortunately 99%
of Nigerians don;t see. That does not mean, that one should ignore the bad news going on in Nigeria.
Nigeria's 200 million market, is not something that can be ignored. Not to mention the 1.2 billion African population, that is a HUGE goldmine waiting to be explored.
Keep up the good work. I appreciate what you, Tayo Aina, Wode May, and other vlogers are doing, by exposing and showing us the MASSIVE potentials all across Africa, that we have ignored for a long time.
Thank you so much
@@StevenNdukwu keep up with the good work 👍
People don't see positivity because they don't want to see it. Believe it or not, some people are more comfortable living perpetually in negativity because it removes the onus on them to do better. "After all, what is the point,?" they say. No-one is saying Nigeria is Eldorado, but when every single person is talking negatively and focusses ONLY on the negative, how can positive things even show their head? And the first thing they do when it tries, is to remind you how there are so many more negative things to cancel it out. Awon abatenije.
People living in Nigeria are paying attention, is people living outside Nigeria that are feed with negative news about Nigerian
@@fabuchap2545 That's a good point you made. I didn't realize that some people just like to dwell on negative things only.
I'm very glad to see such development much love from Ghana🇬🇭
Good one bro,pls help educate many that Nigeria has 36 state excluded fct.
As such the nation is diverse with many cities.
@@kokoedem6058 educate who tho
OMGOSH!!! 5 million Naira is equivalent to about 12K in US$!!! That’s a steal for an affordable home this huge!!! Another great and educational video Steven! 🌍🇳🇬🐘❤
Wow I'm so proud of my State ❤❤❤
I can't still believe this is my State Big thanks 🙏❤ to my GOVERNMENT
Glad you enjoyed it, I hope you tasted Gbegiri and ewedu, supported by Pando yam
It is but Kudos to past Governor he did everything , transformed Abeokuta from village to city I don’t know why Dapo is taking the credit . The only thing he did is the entrance (that interchange entrance)
@@waliuadebayo129 I understand you bro 💯 but all the same Big thanks too everyone behind the Transformation we really appreciate 🙏🙌💙❤💜
@@waliuadebayo129 bro, only real ones know
From Indonesia support like ❤👍
Thank you Steven for showcasing my state
Wow! The Governor of Ogun state just became my role model
Baba, you never see role model. Keep looking.
Sujimoto has been a beneficiary of the state projects. He knew nothing about Ogun state.
Whao! This is impressive. This is an alternative to escaping Lagos craziness while also enjoying doing business in both states. And it's not far from Lagos; some part of the state has already spilled over to Lagos state. Nice one Steven
One of your most passionate and enthusiastic videos on CZcams over the years, well done Steven
You're doing well brother for visiting my state 🙌 👍🏾 God bless you
Ehhhhhhhnnnn??
Steve "The Original Duke" Ndukwu is flexing!!!!!!
Interviewing GOVERNORS now Abiiii??
It is clear that Steve has used his passion and talent as a CZcamsr to cultivate the necessary connections!
Sujimoto's connection in gaining access to the Ogun state government cannot be overestimated !
I am impressed with what I am seeing!!
The Duke goes from strength to strength!
Powerful Positive Youth!
One of the underlooked state in Nigeria.
Sujimoto's enthusiasm is on another level he is so passionate and i love seeing Africa making big progress kudos Nigeria but spare the forest please. One love from Kenya
Spare what forest when the forest is in excess
@@chrisoghenetegamaloney5799Well, the problem with Nigerian builders is that they get rid of all greenery during construction. You'll find that there will be nothing left of the forest you think is in excess by the time they finish construction.
This is partial truth and i really appreciate the work the governor has done so far. i live in ogun state ibafo to be precise i am not happy at the neglect of my part of ogun state our roads are very bad and not motorable at and we have been neglected for too long. Ibafo is located on lagos ibadan express way about five minures drive from Alausa in lagos. we have been neglected for too long the population is well a million people no government presense at all. i would like you to beam your seach light on ibafo, mowe, asese, magboro
I was born in ogun and shool there before relocating to 🇬🇭
It's good to see what the governor is doing. However more can still be done.
This is indeed an eye opener. I was in Olusegun Obasanjo Library, Ogun state in 2019 and I also enjoyed the best Ofada Rice in the world in Oba's palace
Steven you and Tayo Aina are really promoting Nigeria in way to get more foreign investors and tourism to states.
FGN should have give national award to both of them instead of Teni
Tayo Aina don’t make campaign videos like this! This is obviously a campaign video for DA, we ogun state inhabitants know the truth
@@adedolapoboluwatife368 Ogun state is 3rd in IGR only after Lagos and Rivers state, ogun state cant be fixed in 4 years but ogun state is going in the right direction.
Wow!! This is incredible!! Well done Gov Dapo Abiodun👏👏👏. We definitely have to build on this.
I really enjoyed this video, I am so happy about Ogun State Growth
wow this is great, thank you brother for the great video, l so much appreciate it
Thanks for giving me more insight on my state I really love your content
Well done to his excellency, good job david
Wow this is amazing love it thank you so much for sharing
Nigeria has a lot of potential
Seeing you interviewing The Governor actually inspired me that one day, this could be me too...your works are really amazing, keep it up
Steve your Documentaries are always awesome!
I'm impressed to see Ogun State through your lens.
Thank you
All states across Nigeria must do the same. Form east to west to north to south.
lovely video Steve do ya thang
Wow so government's can do this type of development in Nigeria? This is impressive. And i have not heard anything about crude oil, yet some states have all the crude oil but can't even develop anything due to poor leadership and mismanagement. We need more governor's with such development driven minds and selfless service.
Wow. This is amazing. For sure, a lot has changed there in Ogun State. And thank you for representing Kenya on your right wrist. Shukran.
Excellent Steven! Your work is inspiring…
Such a great video and well done for interviewing a governor. Please assist me with information about the real estate especially the yellow roof. Thanks
Thank you so much Steven for letting people to see the beautiful side of my state Ogun state and the amazing work of our governor Dapo Abiodun
Steve is so good at his job, nuff respect bro👏🏽❤️
I click the moment I get a single notification from you...alarms on
Good job, Steve.
This is awesome. Congratulations to the governor and the state. Thank you Steven for educating us and highlighting the accomplishments of the state. Wonderful.
Keep it up Ogun State!!! Much love from SA
Congratulations Steven. You’re one of the hardest working content creators. Kudos to you. Now, your hard work is being recognized. Kudos 👏🏾👏🏾🔥🔥💯💯
Yet some fools will say Nigeria is not moving forward. Shame on Naysayers especially Nigerians talking bad about our Country..
,💯
This is a beautiful and informative documentary
Great video Steve
The parting words of the governor is greatness acknowledging greatness 🙌🏿. Keep up the good work Steven
This is absolutely awesome Steven.
It will be nice if you could use your relationship with the governor and Ogun state government to dive more into details of how small and medium businesses can easily invest in Ogun state.
Governor Dapo has embarked on strategic projects like Ijebu-Ode Epe road, Cargo airport, housing,... It will be great if Ogun state government can create MDA that will strategically support small and medium scale to easily investment e.g. acquiring of land with the necessary documentation with ease and reliable online platform to verify land documents for Nigerians in diaspora.
Please do you have information about the housing project of Ogun state government in other part of the state (Sagamu and Ijebu-Ode)?
I know that construction is going on in Sagamu and Ijebu-Ode but it quite difficult to get detailed information.
Great video! And yet some countries will be comparing their country with Nigeria, when just one state is richer than their entire country.
For those who done know, Ogun state has a HDI higher than that of India. 💪🏽💪🏽💪🏽🇳🇬🇳🇬🇳🇬
It's their desperate struggle for special recognition, Very uncalled for cos every country and peoples matter in the wider scheme of African progress and unity.
Just shut up we praise mediocrity ogun is nice for Nigerian standard but Nigeria as a whole is nothing to praise
Than the whole of India..?🧐 ahhh!
@@AnnieSpecial92861 yes than the whole India. The stats are there.
@@azeezedo-omozuwa1820 nope it doesn’t check world bank and who Nigeria 🇳🇬 doesn’t have a higher human development index than India 🇮🇳 Nigeria is ranked 175th or so while India is 161th in the world
Steve, what you’re doing is laudable. Kudos to you 👏🏿
Thank you
I love Nigerian leaders cause they love their country 💙
What an excellent governor, imagine if every political office holder in Nigeria had this man's mind set, this is very impressive, and kudos to Steven for such an excellent presentation.
I love love love this! Wow!
This is amazing ... congratulations ❤❤
All I can say is wow! I wish all governors in Nigeria, especially those doing little or nothing can emulate this governor and wake up to their duties and responsibilities. A billion kudos to you for opening Ogun state to the world and to this governor for all he is doing for the people.
When u get der u will only see 9000ft work. Then u will know that they are just showing what is not real
Stephen your doing a fantastic job keep up the good work- God bless you 😊
Well done for presenting this 👌🏾👏🏾. This guvnor’s will & mindset to develop his state is what 9ja needs all over….in order to restore the country to its lost glory. Hopefully his successor will keep up with the vision & not abandon the good work & foundation that has been done. God bless Ogun state. 🙏🏾
God Bless the Presenter , The Governor of the State as really tried ,If he is voted back and allow him to handle Federal Roads ,Gbagbe Eeee ,More Investors will prefer Ogun State than Lagos State .
From Adamawa witching this.. ugun is lovely. I hope to visit very soon. Love seeing good things being done by our governors. If we have good state governors across all states we wouldn't car who becomes president of this country to be honest.
Exactly!!!! Vote for the presidential candidate who wants devolution of power from Abuja to the 36 states!
It would make Nigerians appreciate the need to put superb candidates in as governors !!
huge fan of your videos. welldone
Kuddos to the governor and kuddos to you too for the coverage.
Well put together
Great work
Wow wow , Steve
Thank you very kindly for uploading this video for the world…. I’m beyond shocked seeing this massive project taking place in ogun state . It’s about time I buy a house there . Any good suggestions or advice for someone that doesn’t live in Nigeria ?
Thanks brother This a great channel
This was captivating . The guy in the red shirt was so interesting to listen to
Wow. This is impressive
