Seyi Makinde Defends Diesel Generators at APM Rally

During the Boye Nation/JAF Movement Mega Concert at Lekan Salami Stadium in Adamasingba, Ibadan, Governor Seyi Makinde, the presidential candidate of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM), addressed criticisms regarding his administration's reliance on diesel-powered generators for streetlights. He attributed this necessity to the federal government's failure to fulfill promises made by President Tinubu to fix Nigeria's electricity within his first four years in office.

Makinde urged the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate in Oyo State to remember these unfulfilled commitments. He stated, “If the electricity challenge in the country had been resolved as promised, this government would not have needed to rely on diesel-powered generators.” Additionally, Makinde highlighted his engineering qualifications recognized by the Nigerian Society of Engineers and praised APM's governorship candidate in Oyo State, Hon Bimbo Adekanmbi, for his professional credentials.
