Makinde Warns: ‘Be Careful What You Do to Me, I’m Governor Till May 2027’
Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde has cautioned against actions directed at him, stressing that he will remain in office until 29 May 2027.
Makinde made the remarks on Tuesday, 10 November 2026, while presenting the proposed ₦1.12 trillion 2027 budget, tagged “Budget of Sustained Progress,” to the Oyo State House of Assembly in Ibadan.
The governor, who described the presentation as his final budget address, noted that his administration would implement only part of the budget before handing over to his successor.
Speaking about the period after the 2027 elections, Makinde said: “Please be careful what you do to me because after the elections, I’ll still be the governor of this state till May 29, 2027. Even though I will be moving to Abuja, I could still do something in this state between February and May that people will never forget for life.”
Makinde is the presidential candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM). His comments came amid preparations for the 2027 general elections.
