Engineer ‘Seyi Makinde, the governor of Oyo State has been speaking about the sacked Park Management System (PMS) and its wanted chairman Alhaji Mukaila Lamidi aka Auxiliary.
The Governor said he wielded the big stick by dissolving PMS, saying no meaningful activity can take place in an atmosphere of insecurity.
Makinde, through his Chief of Staff, Hon. Segun Ogunwuyi last Tuesday, announced dissolution of the PMS headed by the former NURTW boss Auxiliary.
Oyo Police Command also declared Auxillary wanted in connection with cases of attempted murder, causing grievous harm, arms dealing, murder, armed robbery within Oyo state and kidnapping at Oke-ogun and Ibarapa axis of the State.
But Makinde, while speaking at the thanksgiving service in commemoration of Omituntun 2.0 administration at St. Peters Cathedral, Aremo, Ibadan, assured government would do all necessary reforms in PMS to ensure those fomenting trouble were engaged.
He said: “Before the last election, it wasn’t as if there is no thugs but we called them and told them the new Oyo State we want. We don’t want them to fight themselves, we don’t want fight to break from our garages every time.
“We told them, don’t fight anybody. if we are re-elected, we shall ensure we unite you so that everyone can get what belongs to him or her for people and the government to operate in the atmosphere of peace.
“But one of them said he can’t work with others. so I said two governments cannot operate in the State, there will only be one government.”
The Governor said it took the grace of God for all his achievements in first term.
He noted the most important thing in Omituntun 2.0 is the upgrade of condition of the people, saying government will do everything possible to make the upgrade is seamless and provide atmosphere for people to comply.
