Makinde: Those eyeing my seat are behind insecurity in Oyo

The governor of Oyo State, Engr. Seyi Makinde, on Sunday, said politicians eyeing his seat are behind the high level of insecurity in the state.

He said he would soon expose those politicising the issue of security in the state.

• Tension as 7 Northern traders are shot dead in Imo

Makinde who stated this while addressing the congregation at the St Peters Anglican Cathedral, Aremo, Ibadan, on the occasion of Easter Sunday Service, said that “if they are politicising issue of security because they want to be in power in 2023, it means they are making a huge mistake.”

Makinde stated that his administration has taken time to investigate and proffer solutions to insecurity across the state.

He implored those politicising insecurity because of their 2023 ambition to jettison the idea and seek the face of God instead of engaging in actions he said, could trigger palpable fear in the state.
