Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde appoints Felix Hassan Hyat, a former minister in Nigeria’s aviation ministry, as Director-General for his 2027 presidential campaign. Both outlets report that the appointment is tied to managing the campaign’s national structures.
Vanguard describes Hyat as a former Minister of State for Aviation and identifies him as a former Kaduna State chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party. The Punch similarly presents Hyat as a former Minister of Aviation, appointed as campaign director-general for 2027. While the two reports largely match on the appointment and Hyat’s background, they differ slightly in how they label his aviation portfolio.
Overall, the coverage focuses on Makinde’s decision and Hyat’s political and ministerial experience, with no additional policy platform details or statements from Hyat included in the excerpts.
