After Ogbunorji regime, Mrs Grace Okoro was made the care taker chairman and she led up to two years.
In 1996,Abacha started his transitioned to civil rules and organized zero party election which brought in Hon. Chukwudozie Onuekwma as the executive chairman from 1996-1977. In this same 1997, five (5) political parties were formed by Abacha regime which brought in Barrister Irem Livinus under the shade of National center party (NCP) he stayed only one year because of Abacha’s death in 1998. Hon Nweke was appointed as the transition chairman
After the death of Abacha, Abdusalami Abubakar took over and handed over to civilian within or after 9 months as he promised. After that, three (3) political parties were formed and Ideato north local government council was led by people’s Democratic party (PDP).Hon Okoro uduma as the chairman from 199-2003., After that, uchenna Chukwu was appointed as the caretaker chairman which lasted 7 months and he contested and won the election.

As listed above, they had their respective way of leadership styles, which contributed both the growth and downfall of I’deato north local government council’s social; and economic development.
In I’deato north local government council, since its birth, the government of different regimes has ceaselessly fashioned out one policy or the other as well as programmers tailored toward uplifting the standard of the living of the people as well welfare through policies in education, labour, health, employment and human development made by, federal government. But due to different styles of leadership, the aim of some programmes and policies were achieved and some were not achieved.
Some of the programmers that could not be achieved are: health policy, human development and employment.
Health, which is defined by world health organization (who) as a state of complete physical, mental and social well been and not merely the absence of diseases or infirmity. This could not be achieved because of nepotism using people who are not qualified to carry out such technical programme like immunization and giving injection to babies of under age and this is as a result of mismanagement of personnel and due to biased leader.
Human development due to laissez faire leadership style, and corruptive nature of leaders, they could not bring out money to train their manpower to meet up with the changing technology, so, it make’s the local government council to lack adequate manpower.
Employment, in some regimes, due to laissez faire leadership style and corruption nature of some leaders, they could not bring out money to train their man power to meet up with the changing technology, so it makes the local government council to lack adequate resources.
Human development due to non-utilization of human resource or more correctly, that part of labour force which is available, capable and willing of productive employment, they give or offer employment under who knows or you from whose hand and this brings red-tapism and inefficiency because this is a situation where the merited one’s are employed rather than those who are not qualified because of nepotism or tribalism.
The major cause of them not being able to achieve some of the policies or program is because of the type of leadership style they adopted. They adopted laissez faire system of leadership style, which means that there is freedom of choice as to what the member’s of the group would do. It presupposes that every member is mature and knows what to do and would do so even without being asked to do so. In this style, there are few rules and regulation in the hierarchy of authority.
The workers do work without any directive or procedure. The leader is essential tolerant, a mere figolhead and this is why they could employ without checkmating the employees to know whether they are productive or not.
This type of leadership increase red-tapism ghost workers and other nasty activities that could spoil some good efforts few people will be making.
Ideato north local government council is 19 years old and has been led or ruled by 6 local government chairman, they have done so much especially in the side of education. Education being conceived as the most important direct means of upgrading the human intellect and skills for productive engagement
Ideato (now Ideato North) local government council is blessed with fertile soil, they are among the producing product such as cassava, garri in the state which is called cassava, garri, yam in quantity and this helps the parent to take care of their children on school.
The habitants of ideato north were not well known scholars before or traders or government workers rather their major occupation was farming but now they have many graduates, barristers, chief judges etc. but still it needs proper management of resources so as to bring farm mechanize their farming system in order to increase productivity and ensure efficiency
