Governorship Election: Oyo LP Adopts PDP’s Makinde

The Oyo State chapter of the Labour Party, LP, has chosen Governor Seyi Makinde as its gubernatorial candidate for the March 11 election.

Sadiq Atayese, Chairman of the LP, stated that the party chose Makinde because he is a candidate with character, knowledge, and capacity.

Atayese, speaking at a press conference on Sunday, urged the people of the state to vote for LP candidates in the state assembly elections.

He added that the presidential election demonstrated that no party can “win the upcoming governor election on its own.”

Atayese stated that the party chose Makinde because his ideals align with the LP in areas such as security, infrastructure development, food security, education, and human capital development.

“It is of note that the present PDP administration under Gov. Makinde has presented its scorecard from the health sector with the provisions of Primary Healthcare Centres in every ward to security, others,” he added.
