The All Progressives Congress in Oyo State has told Governor Seyi Makinde to stop his frequent foreign trips for political purposes and face governance which he was elected for.
The opposition party in the state said abandoning governance for globetrotting to help the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, to bounce back to reckoning in the national political space within the Peoples Democratic Party was a great disservice to the people of Oyo State.
Makinde, Wike and other aggrieved PDP governors from Abia, Benue and Enugu states had travelled outside the country on some occasions, and the APC Publicity Secretary in Oyo State, Mr Olawale Shadare, in a statement on Tuesday asked the governor to stop wasting state resources on PDP’s crisis.
The APC said Makinde should either get serious with the business of governance or vacate his seat for the deputy governor to complete the remaining seven months of his four-year term.
The statement read, “Without adding any significant value to the state since May 2019, Makinde has been wasting the meagre resources available on foreign trips. As if this was not enough, the governor has graduated from embarking on frequent personal business trips abroad to globetrotting with Wike and three others who are dissatisfied with the outcome of the last presidential primary of their party.”
