what if the millionaires and his huge associates sponsored his campaigns and engagement politically in all the 30 lg in oyo state. Oriyomi hamzat is a grassroots man. He understands grassroots politics.
Well said. Many won't reason along this line.

He can't win ;!! social media hype is different from politics. He should consult Funke Akindele for a few weeks tutorials.

Oriyomi is a big political force to reckon with. What catch me much is he's much current and steady in the grassroot level. The market women and men that have voters card want him in power same way the Okada man and keke drivers want him to be in power. Oriyomi is very strong politically.

Popularity doesn't win an election, but he must contest first to test the water

Seyi Makinde contested few times before he finally won.
He does not have the resources to do that. Premium regret will follow, he may not even win primary in any of the major party

True but Seyi was still very popular,even at the time when he was losing elections. Elections were massively rigged in favour of ajimobi as orchestrated by Tinubu. After ajimobi's tenure, seyi contested again and oyo people did the needful, even beyond his previous record. Tinubu kept vigil in Ibadan, he deployed his thugs to kidnap seyi overnight, ahead of the inec's declaration. The Ibadan boys got the information much earlier and cordoned off the entry and exit points of the streets leading to Seyi Makinde's residence at orita basorun.

He was inside. His mum was shouting seyiiii, but I warned you not to do politics ooo. What else are you looking fooor. The boys said he shouldn't worry and told mama to also calm down. Those thugs came in buses in the middle of the night but oyo youths repelled them and kept vigil overnight. That was what saved seyi. He'd have been kidnapped and forced to sign an agreement saying he's not interested in elections anymore for the sake of his life and children's. They'd now declare oyo elections inconclusive in places where seyi had won massively and rig it in favour of the apc. Yoruba adage would say, aseni nse ara rę(which literally means, you may think you're hurting somebody, not knowing you're hurting yourself) . Same seyi made his winning in oyo as president possible. LP or the PDP wouid have win oyo in 2023 cos he's not popular there . Seyi became a veritable tool for him.

Tinubu threatened my uncle by the name Aeroland too in alimosho. His sins are much here and a good reason he'll always lose here. My uncle won the federal house of reps seat. He had been known for his community-based projects even without interest in politics. He sank many boreholes, erected street lights and people said, he should please run , so he could do more at the federal level,the offer he first rejected but later accepted. After winning as pdp man, Tinubu sent his people to meet him. He gave him an open cheque which he rejected. He sent another batch threatening him and family,should he remained adamant. The man consulted with stakeholders in alimosho that politics isn't by force, that they should pls allow him step down and Tinubu had hus way.
u just talk rubbish full ground.

I believe u are yarning your beer parlour gist here, I b full Ibadan boy n I full ground for the election.

Tinubu wasn't even involved in the election n it was not even seyi makinde popularity that won him the election.

It was just revenge vote by the angry masses, they didn't vote to support seyi makinde but they all voted against ajimobi who brought penkelemess.

Tinubu made it clear he doesn't want adelabu to contest election in oyo cos he himself knew ajimobi have messed up with uncouth utterances n useless words without caution.

We were outside till after 2 in d midnight that the election was counted n seyi was declared as governor.

Stop your beer parlor discussion, tinubu doesn't have a hand in oyo election.

It was ajimobi that messed up n people angrily voted against his candidate, if u recall events prior to the election tinubu came to Ibadan n raised teslim folarin hand but ajimobi can't work with folarin cos folarin is not a puppet but also a strong man.


That was d main reason adelabu was compensated as minister.

So lock up with your beer parlor gist, I was there live n direct

Mr or Chief oriyomi listen to an advise its Golden sir.

Politics is different from I do charity or doing radio programme. Politics is a different ball game, however, I wish you the very best, it is family affairs no need to be swearing on-top another people matter.

Good luck.

Not only him can make Oyo State better. He needs councilors and House of Assembly members that are upright, exposed, and not corrupt. The same thing will go with commissioners he would choose.

He has to come from a political party that is not known at all and which doesn’t have godfather.

With these and more, he may be able to pull some strings of development in Oyo State.
A Herculean task waiting for Oriyomi Hamzat is how to tame our civil servants’ corruption.

Honestly, I don’t see what our state governor do, after paying salaries and doing a few less quality roads and signature bridges in state capitals. Other towns and villages are left to rot and can go to heelll, even though they are using local governments’ fund to ‘run’ the state.

But will our people truly vote for him, even if the aforementioned are present?

Hmmmm!

I love as you cited example, but Ibadan politics is somehow

The agidigbo guy is very popular amongst local women mainly in Ibadan
The December incident at islamic has eroded his popularity too
I don't if Ibadan elites like him too

I can beat aspirants like adelabu, people has seen dem like maga

If tegbe had not crossed Sha

Let him start from senate first sha

The little fame Oriyomi got has enter his head. I believe he will know his level thereafter. Nigeria politics is beyond Gbenusi mic. Apart from Mr Oriyomi's little philanthropic gesture, the man is more or less an illiterate individual with a lot of illiterates on his side. I like him but he crosses lines many times with his excessiveness.

He possess tyrant quality and maybe that's what Oyo state need anyway. Good luck Mr Oriyomi but can we say all the good works and philanthropic works you've done were politically motivated
Public acclaim does not translate to popularity at all and the story of gani fawehinmi presidential election contest in 2003 provides eloquent commentary. Despite his popularity , he lost that so galantly that he even lost in the polling booth in front of his house in GRA and in all the areas of lagos populated by the 'masses', he scored zero votes in most polling units.

Seyi Makinde contested few times before he finally won.
One time, not several times. Seyi Makinde contested and lost his first governorship election in 2015, but later won the following elections in 2019 and 2023.

Seyi Makinde contested and lost in 2015 on the platform of the Social Democratic Party (SDP).

He then went on to win the governorship election in 2019 and 2023 on the platform of the People's Democratic Party (PDP).
