Makinde’s new crew dey drop like hot suya on a Friday night!
My people, you hear the latest gist? Governor Seyi Makinde just named Bashorun Akinwole as his new Chief of Staff and Mrs. Aderonke Adedayo as Director‑General of the newly‑minted Due Process Office. Na so the Oyo political kitchen dey simmer again, and everybody wan taste the new flavour.
Who be these new guys?
| Position | Appointee | Known for |
|---|---|---|
| Chief of Staff | Bashorun Akinwole | Veteran political strategist, once ran a grassroots campaign that made the whole state comot body. |
| DG, Due Process Office | Mrs. Aderonke Adedayo | Legal eagle, former senior counsel who sabi the law like she dey sing gospel. |
Why we dey talk am?
Because the Due Process Office na fresh concept – a sort of watchdog wey go ensure say every contract, appointment, and tender go pass the correct channels. Some pipo dey call am “the new police for the political street,” while others think na just another talk‑show for the governor’s cabinet.
My take – the real tea
-
Bashorun dey carry the “sure guy” vibe. He’s the kind of man wey go sit down, sip palm‑wine, and still manage to convince the garrison that everything dey on point. If he can keep the governor’s agenda tight, maybe Oyo go finally see some steady progress.
-
Adedayo is a real lawyer, no be just another “political hand‑holder.” She fit bring the kind of due‑process rigor wey we never see before – if she get the political backing to act.
-
But make we no forget the uncomfortable truth: appointments like these often become tokens – a shiny coat for the same old system. If the governor does not give them real independence, the Due Process Office go end up being another paper‑pusher while corruption still dey hide for the shadows.
Bottom line: we watch am like the latest afrobeats hit – the beat is sweet, but we must check if the lyrics truly speak truth or just play the crowd. Time go tell if Makinde’s new squad fit comot body the old ways or just join the parade.
