Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State has called on residents of the state to leverage the 2023 general election to “take back Nigeria and place it on the path of righteousness.”
The governor reiterated that the February 25 presidential election would be like no other, as it is destined to usher in a truly independent Nigeria, warning the citizens not to vote with sentiments.
According to Makinde, the insinuation that politics is a dirty game; hence, Christians should abstain from it, had been unhelpful, noting that more Christians should participate in politics and governance to help illuminate the dark parts of the world. When completed, he added, the road would commute travellers from the Ife/Ibadan Road axis to Lagos in one hour and 10 minutes without having to go through the Ibadan city centre.
