Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State was absent when the presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Atiku Abubakar campaigned in the state on Thursday, January 19th.
The campaign was held at the Mapo Hall in Ibadan, Oyo State Capital.
Despite Makinde’s absence, Atiku, however, commended Makinde in absentia, for providing an enabling environment for the campaign.
The former Vice President also said his administration will tackle the security challenges in Nigeria if elected President.
He lamented that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has failed to keep to every commitment it made to Nigerians prior to 2015.
The campaign was attended by prominent politicians in the state except for the Oyo governor who is a member of the G5, popularly known as the integrity group, the aggrieved governors within PDP.
