The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) leaders in Oke-Ogun Zone have reaffirmed their total support for Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde, dismissing recent defections led by Senator Hosea Agboola as “inconsequential.”
In a communiqué issued after a high-level meeting held in Iseyin on October 23, 2025, all ten local government chairmen, vice chairmen, and political appointees in the zone unanimously passed a vote of confidence in Governor Makinde and the Oyo State PDP leadership.
The party leaders praised Makinde for transforming Oke-Ogun through major strides in road infrastructure, education, healthcare, and agriculture, noting that the region has witnessed “unprecedented development” under his administration.
They described the defectors as politicians who “owe their relevance to the PDP” and cannot sway the people of Oke-Ogun, who have benefitted from Makinde’s people-focused governance.
The meeting also pledged total commitment to Makinde’s presidential ambition and vowed to strengthen the PDP ahead of the 2027 general elections.
