Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde has issued a stern warning to members of the state House of Assembly, cautioning them against any conduct that might incite him, while firmly asserting his commitment to remaining in office until May 29, 2027.
Makinde gave the warning jokingly on Tuesday while presenting the proposed N1.12 trillion 2027 budget to the state lawmakers.
The governor, who is also the presidential candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), said although he would be moving to Abuja after the 2027 general election, he would remain in charge of Oyo State until the end of his tenure.
“Please, be careful what you do to me because, after the election, I will still be the governor of this state until May 29, 2027,” he said.
“Even though I will be moving to Abuja, I can still do something in this state between February and May that people will never forget.”
To substantiate his assertion, Makinde recounted a harrowing episode from his secondary education at Bishop Philips Academy in Ibadan, wherein a teacher administered corporal punishment to students following a purported divine revelation that his own death was imminent.
He said the teacher had summoned the students and flogged them before explaining that he had received a revelation that one of them had done something that would cause his death.
According to Makinde, the teacher subsequently declared that he would not die until June and that the students would never forget the incident.
“And truly, we never forgot it until June, when we graduated. So, don’t let me say the same thing to you all. Until May 29, 2027, don’t let me do something that people will never forget,” the governor said.
