  "summary": "Oyo State Governor Seyi Makinde has stated that it will be difficult for any future administration to dismantle the institutions his government has established. Speaking on Thursday during the commissioning of the newly constructed office complex for the Oyo State Rule of Law Enforcement Authority (OYRLEA), Makinde warned his successor against attempting to scrap these agencies.\n\nAccording to Daily Post Nigeria, the agencies Makinde listed include OYRLEA, Amotekun, the Oyo State Agribusiness Development Agency, the Oyo State Project Performance Monitoring Agency, the Oyo State Mobilisation Agency for Socioeconomic Development, and the Oyo State Anti-Corruption Agency. Makinde explained that these bodies were created to ensure orderliness in the state and noted that attempting to dismantle them could have negative implications for state affairs.\n\nThe Governor stated that any government interested in the future of the state would not attempt to scrap these agencies. He added that good governance is centered on the rule of law, noting that when security agencies enforce laws without bias, it fosters order, attracts investors, and improves the economy. Daily Post Nigeria reports that Makinde is expected to complete his second term in May next year.",
