In a chat with newsmen, Igboho recalled that he used to be very close to the Governor adding that he assisted Makinde to win the 2019 governorship election though their relationship predated that exercise.

“I supported him and campaigned for him during the 2019 governorship election in Oyo, I met him through former governor of Oyo State, Rasheed Ladoja.

‘’Rasheed Ladoja encouraged me to support Makinde during the election 2019 and I showed my utmost support because I never rejected any advice from Ladoja but Makinde never kept to his words due to the insecurity in the state and the incessant killings. So i took it upon myself to restore security by issuing the quit notice to the herders in the state.’’
