<p><strong><a href="https://openlife.ng/">OpenLife</a> </strong>reports that Oyo State Governor, Seyi Makinde, on Sunday, revealed how the next governor of the State would emerge.<br />
In specific terms, governor Makinde said that the next governor must be someone who will continue with the progress his administration has made as well as secure future developmental trajectory.<br />
He said, “We have engaged with a number of credible individuals as part of a deliberate transition process, and I will communicate a decision in due course, one that reflects both the progress we have made and the future we must secure.”</p>
<p>According to information, Governor Makinde, on Saturday, March 21, 2026, tasked an advisory council with engaging credible candidates among the Peoples Democratic Party aspirants for the 2027 governorship election.</p>
<p>The council, led by Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Bolaji Ayorinde, was mandated to interact with all governorship aspirants on the platform of the PDP and provide recommendations for a candidate in continuation of Omituntun 3.0.</p>
<p>Makinde’s decision, according to the investigation, is aimed at giving all aspirants the opportunity to showcase their plans and ideas while ensuring a level playing field.</p>
<p>Some of the aspirants who responded include a member of the House of Representatives representing Ibadan South-West/North-East, Adedeji Olajide (Odidiomo); Chairman of the State Universal Basic Education Board,<a href="https://punchng.com/"> Nureni Adeniran</a>; former commissioner for finance, budget, and planning during the late former Governor Abiola Ajimobi’s administration, Bimbo Adekanmbi.</p>
<p>Others include state Chairman of the Agribusiness Development Agency, Debo Akande; and Speaker of the state House of Assembly, Adebo Ogundoyin, among others. However, the governor, in the newsletter, said he was aware that residents in the state were watching very closely about the next dispensation.</p>
<p>“I am also aware that many of you are watching closely as we approach a transition period in Oyo State. And that you have questions about continuity, leadership, and the future direction of our state.”<br />
He promised to communicate a decision in due course, though he did not state the date.<br />
However, the governor had earlier announced that the candidate of the party would emerge through consensus on April 8.</p>
