The immediate former Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Prince Diran Odeyemi says contesting against Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State in 2023 both in the party’s primary and in the gubernatorial election will be an effort in futility as he has the power of incumbency and his excellent performance in governance as factors that will count for him.
Analyzing political developments in Osun State as Aanuoluwapo Omorinde’s guest on IMPACT POINT – a Current Affairs programme on IBR 92.5fm Ibadan on Monday, Odeyemi said it is foolhardy for anyone to think Governor Gboyega Oyetola would lose the APC primary last weekend in the circumstances that surrounded the exercise just like no one can confront Governor Seyi Makinde in 2023 because of the power of incumbency which he wields.
Speaking further, the Osun State born Politician extended the scope of his argument saying with the popularity of Governor Seyi Makinde and his achievements in Office, it will be difficult for the opposition to dislodge him in any election.
