Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde’s administration faces new resignations as three political appointees leave their roles. Vanguard reports that the departures include Ayobami Oluwaseun Ojo, the Commissioner for Budget and Economic Planning, along with Sunday Olugbenga Falana of OYSIEC and a special adviser to the governor, Simeon Adegbola Oyeleke. Premium Times also reports that two commissioners and a special adviser resign, describing the latest exits as part of a wider pattern of political activity.
Premium Times adds context, saying the resignations occur as political activities build ahead of the 2027 general elections, with Makinde running for president under the Allied Peoples Movement (APM). Daily Post focuses on the case of Ojo, stating he submits a resignation letter to the governor and does not give a reason. Across the reports, outlets differ mainly in which specific names and roles they highlight and how much broader political context they include.
