100 DAYS in OFFICE: IS Seyi Makinde really a Nigerian?

By Jack Gabriel O. The elders and people of Oyo State are beginning to wonder if the new Oyo State Governor, Oluseyi Makinde of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) is truly from Oyo State and indeed a Nigerian. He acts completely like a foreign national. Now, see what he has done in his first 100 days in office. This is Seyi Makinde, 51years old, Executive Governor of Oyo State. In just 100 days in office he has achieved the following: •Free Primary and Secondary Education. Free exercise books and other materials for all school children. The books have no party logo. The books have no governor’s image. The books are not to be sold. •Pensioners and workers gets paid every 25th of the month and 23rd if pay day falls on weekend. •Launched Oyo State-Farmcrowdy Agribusiness Partnership to commence a 3-year plan with 50,000 farmers in the state. •100 units of Kia Rio 1.4 Executive Automatic Transmission vehicles for the various security agencies •Criminalised Open Grazing •Begins e-registration of everyone living in Oyo State to determine the number of people living and doing business in the state •Proscribed NURTW because of violence in the state and to this day, they are yet to be back •N500,000 bursary for every Oyo State indigene Studying in Law School •Publicly declared his assets •Established Oyo State Financial Crimes Commission to fight graft in government •Ready to waive his immunity if found to have stolen from government The N3000 levy imposed on Oyo school children by Ajimobi was cancelled the second week Seyi took office and declared full free and quality education in the state. Everything is strictly government! And on top of all of this, his monthly salary is N650,000. It is ironically becoming doubtful if the man is really a Nigerian
