Oyo State governor-elect, Seyi Makinde, has explained that his decision on the contracts hastily awarded by the state government at the twilight of the administration was borne out of concern for the financial health of the state rather than an attack on Governor Abiola Ajimobi.

Olojede, who is also the state chairman of the Nigeria Labour Congress , was said to have been retired.
