Oyo State Chapter of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) has challenged Governor Seyi Makinde, to explain
the source of his N48 billion asset made public on Monday.
Chief Akin Oke, the state
chairman of the party, disclosed this in a telephone interview with the News
Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Iseyin on Tuesday.
“I don’t think I want to make
comment on the issue since I have no idea, but it raises a number of issues.
“He just declared what he has,
how did he come about the asset is not there,” Oke said.
The chairman said it would be too
early to access the performance of the governor who have spent just a few days
in office.
“Going by my experience and
exposure, I think it is too early to honestly access a governor just after few
days office, I will rather wait till after 100 days or even after 6 months.
“To start accessing people after
6 weeks in office will be so unfair if one want to be honest to his
conscience,” he added.
Makinde on Monday fulfilled his campaign promise to publicly declare his
assets.
The Governor, who visited the Oyo
state office of the Code of Conduct Bureau (CCB) in Ibadan to receive a copy of
the asset declaration form, said that his decision to make the assets public
was in fulfillment of a personal promise he made during the elections.
Details of the assets as
contained in the CCB 1 with the name Oluseyi Abiodun Makinde, which was
declared at the High Court of Oyo State, on May 28, 2019, indicated that the
Governor is worth over N48bn.
