GOVERNOR SEYI MAKINDE GOT IT RIGHT — WOLEKANLE IS THE RIGHT MAN FOR THE JOB — WOLEKANLE YOUTH VANGUARD
When history looks back on the transformational appointments made by His Excellency Governor Seyi Makinde, one name will stand tall among the most impactful — Bashorun Akinwale Akinwole (Wolekanle), Chairman of the Oyo State Local Government Service Commission.
As the Wolekanle Youth Vanguard, we wholeheartedly commend the Governor for making a decision that has proven to be not only strategic but also deeply people-centered. In choosing Wolekanle to lead the Commission, Governor Makinde did not make a mistake — he chose vision, experience, empathy, and genuine love for the people.
Wolekanle’s leadership so far has validated the Governor’s trust. His swift, humane, and reform-driven approach to staff welfare, promotion transparency, and local government system strengthening is setting a new tone across the state. Workers now feel seen, heard, and valued — because a true leader is at the helm.
It takes a leader with foresight to recognize another leader with capacity, and Governor Seyi Makinde has consistently shown that he is not only a governor of the people, but also a master at identifying those who will complement his agenda for a better Oyo State.
Wolekanle has brought energy, integrity, and compassion into the Commission. His presence is already bridging the gap between government and grassroots workers, between authority and accountability, and between intention and impact.
To all staff of the local government service, we say this: your future is secure. Your welfare is a priority. Your dignity is being restored. And your service is finally being appreciated — all thanks to the trust placed in the right man by the right governor.
Governor Seyi Makinde made no mistake. Wolekanle is not just a political appointee — he is a purpose-driven servant of the people.
Indeed, Governor Makinde got it right.
