I brought Makinde into Oyo governorship race — Broadcaster Oriyomi Hamzat
Broadcaster Oriyomi Hamzat claims he brought Governor Seyi Makinde into the Oyo governorship race and deserves credit for his successes. com/i-brought-makinde-into-oyo-governorship-race-broadcaster-oriyomi-hamzat/
Broadcaster Oriyomi Hamzat has stated that he was among those who helped Governor Seyi Makinde enter the Oyo governorship race, which led to his victory. Hamzat, who is the Accord Party's candidate for the 2027 election, believes Makinde has significantly improved the state under his leadership. However, he is frustrated that he is not receiving credit for his role in Makinde's success.
The broadcaster explained that their relationship has never been transactional, and he simply wants the public to acknowledge Makinde's achievements. Hamzat currently supports Makinde's presidential ambitions in the 2027 election through the Allied Peoples Movement, while pursuing his own political aspirations with the Accord Party.
Their political differences have become increasingly apparent, as Makinde shifted his support to another candidate, Bimbo Adekanmbi, for the 2027 governorship race.
