Just in: Makinde’s chief of staff resigns
"There are suggestions that he could be considering joining the APC, but we cannot say that definitively at this stage,” the source said. The post Just in: Makinde’s chief of staff resigns appeared first on Vanguard…
Seyi Makinde, governor of Oyo State, has governed under the People's Democratic Party (PDP) since 2019 and is widely seen as a key PDP figure in the South-West ahead of the next general election. The resignation of his chief of staff, Segun Ogunwuyi, comes at a politically sensitive time, with months to go before Nigerians return to the polls and parties across the country positioning themselves through alliances, defections and realignments.
Coverage agrees that Ogunwuyi's resignation takes effect from Monday, but accounts differ on what comes next. While BusinessDay simply reports the exit, Vanguard cites a source suggesting he may be weighing a move to the All Progressives Congress (APC), Nigeria's ruling party, though this has not been officially confirmed. Details on the exact reasons for his departure, his next political steps, and who will replace him as chief of staff have not yet been disclosed.
