I do not believe in Godfathersim. I come from a humble background and I became who I am today by the grace of God. No penny of #OyoState money will be paid to any Godfather anywhere in Nigeria be it Abuja, Lagos or PH. #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
Continuity: we'll not continue any project which doesn't benefit the people of #OyoState. Infrastructure projects should be linked to our econ & provide value. Where's the value in dualising roads if feeder roads are bad? #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
On LGA autonomy: I belong to a party, #PDP which advocates for restructuring. If it is going to be done at the national level, I will certainly ensure that it is done in #OyoState. I'm in support of Local Government autonomy. #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #SplashFMGovDebate
Let me use this opportunity to clarify something as people have been saying if I become governor, I will scrap LCDAs. I won't scrap LCDAs but we will make them functional and make the structure effective. #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #OyoState #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
The current situation where workers in LCDAs go to work 3 days a week, oftentimes just to share whatever money is allocated to them will not continue. #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #OyoState #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
Is today's politics a commercial/ business venture or not? No it isn't. #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #OyoState #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
On PHCs: This is the major difference between our plan and the current administration. Currently, the PHCs are shells without qualified personnel or equipment. We will allocate money to provide health facilities. #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #OyoState #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
On revenue generation: Govt spending affects the local economy. Our govt will ensure that contracts are awarded to our people in #OyoState not contractors outside the state. #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #OyoState #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
Secondly, natural resources alone cannot grow an economy. It has to be backed up with entreprenurial skills. This is my forte. I have done this for myself and I will do the same to lift our people in #OyoState out of poverty #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
On sports: Sports & youths development is key to any economy. It is a major difference between our plan and the proponents of Next Level. I am a major backer of the annual @LageluFM967 Interhouse Sports competition #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #OyoState #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
Youths from this programme have gone on to represent Nigeria in various competitions. I'm glad my friend, @BayoAdelabu admitted that sports infrastructure in #OyoState is dilapidated. Our administration will fix this. #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
On BCOS: The question tells me that people do not want continuity. BCOS will need to revamp its programmes and recruit from our available talents so that govt intervention is less and they can compete with others. #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #OyoState #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
On minimum wage: When we get in, we will review the books and see what is possible to pay after we have ensured that we have blocked leakages. I will not stand here and lie to people. #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #OyoState #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
On LAUTECH: I will sit down with the Governor of Osun State by God's grace, Senator Adeleke to resolve the issue of LAUTECH. The APC has had 8 years to do this and did not so they can't be making more promises now. #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #OyoState #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
On First Lady: My wife is in this room and I believe she will make an excellent first lady of #OyoState so yes. #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
Are women meant to be in the other room: My wife is an engineer and also studied business so I believe she will do well in #OyoState with her pet projects to help children and widows. #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #OyoState #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
On net worth: Over the past 8 years, I've paid close to N1.5B every year in taxes. I am declaring this publicly because I am not a guest of the EFCC. #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #OyoState #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
On probing Ajimobi: I'll be too busy creating wealth for the downtrodden people of #OyoState to embark on any probes. #SeyiMakinde2019 #OmiTuntun2019 #PDP #SplashFMGovDebate
