Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), former Vice President Atiku Abubakar said the Oyo state Governor, Seyi Makinde has demonstrated that integrity is not a mere lip homage by making his assets declaration public.
The Waziri Adamawa in a statement by his Media Adviser, Paul Ibe Tuesday stated that “the Governor, by this action, demonstrates that integrity is not mere lip homage but a consistent course of action of an individual doing as they promised.”
Atiku commended the governor for his forthrightness and declared his support for him and his administration.
The statement read in part: “Recall that the governor had hit the ground running after his swearing-in as governor with groundbreaking policies that seek to frontally address the problems of corruption in public and private sectors and also in advancing the access to universal basic education. These are programs to which the PDP is heartily committed.
“The former vice president is particularly proud of Governor Makinde because his action as the only elected public official so far to so publicly declare his assets speaks eloquently to the maxim of leadership by example.
“By this, the governor has spoken without any ambiguity, that his administration will not condone corruption. His example is highly recommended to other leaders at all levels of government.”
