The governor of Oyo State, Engineer ‘Seyi Makinde, has declared August 20 a work-free day to mark 2024 Isese Day.
This was contained in a circular issued by the Secretary to Oyo State Government, Professor Olanike Adeyemo.
Recall that Governor Makinde had stated last year that every August 20 would be observed as a work-free day in the state in commemoration of Isese Day.
The governor, in the circular, enjoined all traditional worshippers and all citizens to use the day to pray for the peace, unity and stability of the state in particular and the country in general.
