If he wins the 2019 governorship election, Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, candidate, Seyi Makinde, has said that from May 29 this year, he will announce the cancellation of the N3000 currently being paid by the 391,000 secondary school students and thus relieve parents of the N1.2b they have been paying to government coffers each year.
This is just as he said that he will not abolish the newly created Local Government Development Areas, LCDAs, and neither will he probe the current administration.
In a release signed by his campaign spokesman Prince Dotun Oyelade, Makinde who spoke during a Splash FM organised debate in Ibadan said that he believes that the closer government is to the grassroot, the better for the masses.
The PDP flagbearer said there are too many things to be done than to dissipate energy and resources on probing the outgoing administration.
Makinde said that after the election he will open the state account to the leadership of the Nigeria Labour Congress and together a decision will be taken on how to plug financial loopholes which will result in the payment of the minimum wage.
On the Ladoke Akintola University of Technology, LAUTECH, he said will be the sole propertyof Oyo state because he believes that a political environment will emerge in Osun state that will give vent to that actualisation.
On infrastructure, Seyi Makinde said that his administration will concentrate on the construction of hinterland roads that will assist farmers to get their harvests across to the cities instead of concentrating road facilities only in urban areas for political reasons.
