As Nigeria marks another year of constitutional democracy, the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Oyo State has issued a cautionary statement to Governor Seyi Makinde, alleging a continuation of inadequate governance and superficial achievements.
In a press release made available to journalists in Ibadan, the state capital, the APC Publicity Secretary, Olawale Sadare, expressed disappointment in the lack of substantial progress and transparency under Makinde’s leadership.
“The first year of Governor Makinde’s second term in office has been established to be a continuation of window dressing, ubiquitous noise-making, and grandstanding at the Agodi Government House as against the expected quality service delivery and building of strong institutions for democracy and good governance to thrive,” the statement read.
APC further criticised the governor for allegedly bypassing due process in contract awards and failing to prioritize key sectors such as healthcare and education.
The party also highlighted issues such as industrial action by healthcare workers, teacher shortages in public schools, and the stagnation of agricultural development despite the state’s agricultural potential.
Continuing, the statement accused the Makinde-led administration of neglecting the traditional institution and exacerbating youth unemployment, citing alleged manipulation of local government affairs to maintain control.
