Oyo Governor-elect, Seyi Makinde speaks on sacking APC appointees

The Oyo State Governor-elect, Seyi Makinde, has promised to retain those appointed by the outgoing All Progressives Congress (APC) if they are found to be competent.

Makinde, who won the governorship election on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), said this during an interview with Lagelu FM 96.7 on Tuesday.
“We are willing to work with anyone even in the APC. If we see they are good or if an appointee appointed by the APC is good, we will retain him.

“At the end of the day, people are more concerned with results,” the Governor-elect said.
Makinde also announced the N3,000 education levy which was imposed on students by the Governor Abiola Ajimobi-led government, has been cancelled.
“The N3,000 which students are made to pay as education levy will be stopped immediately I take over on May 29. The money is about N1.2bn but let parents now hold unto that money and use it for their personal matters,” he said.
