Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, has said he will announce his preferred successor in January 2026.
Makinde made this known during the 11th Omituntun Ramadan lecture held at the government house arcade in Ibadan.
Speaking in Yoruba, Makinde thanked Muslim leaders for supporting his administration and urged them to continue praying for his government.
He jokingly addressed Abbas Oloko, a popular socialite, telling him not to remove his billboard at Isale Alfa.
“I’m not yet a lame duck. Please leave my billboard at Isale Alfa. “In January 2026, we know that political activities will start. I will tell you the picture of the person that will be installed there,” Makinde said.
The governor also encouraged Muslims to use the Ramadan season to promote peace and unity in society, regardless of religious differences.
