Competence Will Decide Oyo Successor – Makinde
Seyi Makinde, Governor of Oyo State, has said the choice of his successor will be based on competence and capacity rather than political party.

He added that policies should not be disrupted when new governments take over.
He also said his administration is building strong institutions to support continuity in governance and attract investment.
Speakers at the summit praised the state’s tourism plan and efforts to create a stable environment for development.
