Oyo: I Didn’t Betray Political Parties who Aided my Re-Election Victory – Makinde
POLITICS DIGEST- Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde yesterday declared that he had fulfilled all agreements he entered into with the political parties that aided his election in 2019.
He said those who accused him of breaching the agreement with the coalition parties did not have their facts.
Makinde said in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Taiwo Adisa, that he remained a promise keeper.
The governor spoke at the 85th birthday of former Secretary to the State Government (SSG), Chief Micheal Koleosho, in Ibadan.
He said people, who wanted to make the 2019 coalition agreement an issue in the build-up to 2023 election had no knowledge of the issues, adding that in the end, the will of God triumphed

He said: “The impression I want to correct is that there are people that were not there when we were making the agreement, but went on air before the last election and started saying Makinde did not honour agreement.”
The governor described the former SSG as one of the best politicians the state had ever produced.
The statement further quoted the governor as saying that Koleosho was one of his role models and that he had been following his footsteps in politics.
Makinde, who hailed the octogenarian’s support for his administration since he became governor in 2019, noted that he was one of the leaders who facilitated a coalition of political parties that supported him and that he was glad that he had fulfilled his promises to all the parties.
He said the resuscitation of the Technical College, Saki was one of his programmes under Omituntun 2.0, “because the institution will promote vocational education.”
