Seyi-Makinde
Seyi Makinde, the governor of Oyo State, has stated that he will name his preferred successor in January 2026.
Makinde made this known on Monday during the 11th Omituntun Ramadan lecture held at the government house arcade in Ibadan.
The lecture, titled ‘Benefits of Being a Good Neighbour: An Islamic Perspective’, was delivered by Yunus Teliat, the grand chief Imam of Ogbomoland.
Speaking in Yoruba, Makinde thanked Muslim leaders for supporting his administration and urged them to continue praying for his government.
He jokingly addressed Abbas Oloko, a popular socialite, telling him not to remove his billboard at Isale Alfa.
“I’m not yet a lame duck. Please leave my billboard at Isale Alfa.
“In January 2026, we know that political activities will start. I will tell you the picture of the person that will be installed there,” Makinde said.
The governor also encouraged Muslims to use the Ramadan season to promote peace and unity in society, regardless of religious differences.
