Mogaji Ejilola Sefiu Abiodun has commended Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde for his administration’s development initiatives, citing infrastructure projects, educational performance and growth in internally generated revenue (IGR) as notable areas of progress.
Abiodun made the remarks while speaking with journalists during the visit of Hon. Stanley Adedeji Odidiomo to Ọdẹrinlọ Compound, Ibadan, where discussions centred on political engagement and the future of the state.
He highlighted the Ibadan Circular Road as a major infrastructure project with the potential to improve transportation, attract investment and stimulate economic activities across Oyo State.
On education, he noted that Oyo ranked third nationally by the number of candidates who obtained at least five credits, including English Language and Mathematics, in the 2026 NECO examination.
He also pointed to the state’s revenue performance, with IGR rising from approximately ₦65.29 billion in 2024 to ₦103.25 billion in 2025, an increase of about 58 per cent.
Abiodun urged residents to assess the administration’s record on its merits, while emphasising the importance of addressing the concerns of communities affected by development projects.
Looking ahead to the next general election, he called on the people of Oyo State to support Governor Seyi Makinde and vote for APM candidates from top to bottom, expressing his belief that continuity in development and governance would benefit the state.
He maintained that political differences should not prevent objective assessment of government performance, urging residents to prioritise development, accountability and the long-term interests of Oyo State.
