Tinubu Gave Makinde ₦50bn for Ibadan Explosion — Fayose Drops Bombshell

 Former Ekiti State Governor Ayo Fayose has revealed that
President Bola Ahmed Tinubu gave Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde N50 billion as
support for the Ibadan explosion.

 

Fayose disclosed this in an interview with TVC on Friday.

 

He criticized Makinde for telling Nigerians skewed details
on his conversation with President Tinubu.

 

“The president of Nigeria, yes, he wanted the sitting; he
wanted the minister to be appointed. Circumstances did not allow him to get
that slot.

 

“But you did not tell Nigerians you got, at the prerogative,
at the mercy of Mr. President, 50 billion Naira in support of the explosion in
Ibadan. He never said that to Nigeria. So, the president can say the explosion
is not worth more than 10 billion.”

 

Fayose alleged that the 50 billion Naira provided by the
presidency to assist Oyo State in managing the aftermath of the explosion did
not go directly into the state coffers.

 

“The 50 billion did not come into the coffers of Oyo state.
It came with you coming to interface with the president because you came and
said you met with the president,” he said.

 

He further accused Makinde of failing to acknowledge the
president’s support publicly, stating, “You only said the part where you said
the president told you to ‘go and organize APC for me,’ and I said, ‘I cannot
organize.’” But you did not tell Nigerians what the president did for you and
did for the good people of your state.”

 

Fayose has also accused Makinde of destroying the Peoples
Democratic Party in the South-West.

 

Recall that Makinde, in a recent interview, declared that he
is not supporting President Tinubu in 2027.
