Makinde Appoints Akinwole as New Chief of Staff
On October 12, Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde appointed Akinwale Akinwole as the new Chief of Staff and Aderonke Adedayo as the Director-General of the Due Process Office. These appointments were made immediately after the resignations of Olusegun Ogunwuyi, who was the Chief of Staff, and Omotara Adefowope, who served as the Director-General of the Due Process Office.
The changes reflect a significant shake-up within the Governor’s Office amid increasing political activity and speculation regarding realignments ahead of the 2027 general elections. The announcements were made through separate letters signed by the Secretary to the State Government, Prof. Musibau Babatunde.
Akinwole, a grassroots politician and former Chairman of the Oyo State Local Government Service Commission, succeeds Ogunwuyi, whose resignation generated considerable political interest.
