Elder Wole Oyelese, a former Minister of Power and Steel, has revealed that the overbearing attitude of Governor Seyi Makinde has driven many prominent members of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) away.

Report indicates that Oyelese, who spoke on Tuesday, noted that Makinde’s action in the last three and half years of his administration has forced many members out of the party.

The former minister, who is one of the chieftains of the PDP in the state, disclosed this while speaking with newsmen in Ibadan, the state capital.

It will be recalled that Makinde had while featuring on a Channels Television programme, made some unprintable words about Oyelese and other leaders of the party.

Oyelese has, however, revealed that Makinde’s overbearing attitude has driven many members of the party away.

The former minister, while speaking, explained that Makinde’s attitude as demonstrated in the interview had forced many prominent members of the party to go to other political parties.

He added that Makinde should recall how in 2015 he (Oyelese) led a group of leaders to introduce him to prominent traditional rulers in the state.

He explained that he was the one that introduced him (Makinde) to the mainstream of Oyo state politics.

Oyelese said, “Many of those people are still very much alive and politically active and relevant in all the senatorial districts of Oyo state”.

He should at least have recalled how I led the group to all the prominent Traditional Rulers in Oyo state and introduced him to the mainstream and thus give us some credit and respect.
