APC Accuses Makinde of Inciting Violence in Oyo State

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has accused Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde of inciting violence following his remarks at a summit in Ibadan, where he referenced the violent history of the region. Felix Morka, the APC's National Publicity Secretary, stated that Makinde's comments pose a significant threat to national peace and security, suggesting they could lead to widespread lawlessness.

Morka emphasized that Makinde's position as governor carries a constitutional responsibility for state security and that his rhetoric undermines Nigeria's democratic order. He called on relevant security agencies to take serious action to safeguard lives and property.

Morka also criticized the opposition parties, particularly the PDP, for their internal conflicts and alleged anti-democratic practices. He reaffirmed APC's commitment to managing its internal affairs without yielding to blackmail and emphasized the party's focus on the upcoming 2027 general elections.
