Oba Rashidi Ladoja Midwifed The Process That Led To My Emergence As Governor – Seyi Makinde

Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde has come out to say that his emergence as governor was made possible through the role played by Oba Rashidi Ladoja.

He recently had his say during his visit to Ladoja’s Ondo Street private residence in Ibadan, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, it would be impossible to write his political history without mentioning Ladoja, and despite their political differences, he cannot forget in a hurry his political trajectory which continues to make him indebted to Oba Ladoja.

Seyi added that Oba Rashidi actually midwifed the process that led to his emergence as governor in 2019.

His words, “My political trajectory cannot be complete without mentioning Baba’s name. Daddy was the one that midwifed the process that led to my emergence as governor in 2019. As I said, I don’t have anything against Daddy (Ladoja), and there is no way you will write my political history without his (Ladoja) name. My political history is incomplete without Daddy’s input.

We may have some political differences. When I became governor in 2019, you were the one that midwifed the process. And I beg you that whenever I have offended you, I have begged you. We may have some political differences. This is not the only thing. And sincerely, we will re-align and there will be development.

Today is a special day for me. Today is a special day for Ibadanland and the state because one of the leading lights is celebrating his 80th birthday.

We thank God. A lot of people may not know this, but I feel that whenever I have the opportunity I will say it openly. You still have a lot of roles to play, So, we will continue to look forward to your leadership”

WOW.
