Governor’s Remarks Spark Outcry | Nigeria News

Democracy Watchers has slammed Governor Seyi Makinde for disrespectfully attacking traditional rulers in Yorubaland, calling his remarks an affront to elders and a dangerous abuse of political power. They argue that no governor has the right to threaten or insult institutions that predate elected offices and that true leadership demands respect, not intimidation. The group warns that this behavior reflects growing intolerance ahead of the 2027 elections and urges Makinde to apologize and retract his statement, while encouraging traditional rulers to stay focused on serving their people.
