Makinde urges Ajimobi to stop making far-reaching policies

Oyo State Governor-elect, Seyi Makinde has written outgoing Governor, Abiola Ajimobi, advising him to stop making policies that would hinder smooth takeoff of his administration on May 29 this year.

Makinde specifically cautioned against policies and indiscriminate award of last minute contacts that may not be completed before the expiration of Ajimobi’s tenure, wondering why the State Pilgrimage Board was taking some far-reaching decisions that would be difficult for his administration to implement.

He alleged that some government appointees under ‘the guise of spurious legitimacy’ have been rushing to award contracts backed by questionable mobilisation fees running into billions of naira.

But in a swift reaction, the governor’s spokesperson, Bolaji Tunji said Ajimobi’s government would remain active till May 28 and could not be made docile by “the comments of a man with little understanding of governance.”
