Politicians need to learn from Seyi Makinde – Yetunde Bakare

Actress Yetunde Bakare has addressed politicians across the country on the need to take a cue from the leadership style of the re-elected Oyo Governor Seyi Makinde.

Bakare, in an open letter, highlighted Makinde as a leader who’s loved by his people, citing the jubilant mood in the state upon his declaration as the governor-elect by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Sunday.

The film star stated Makinde possessed the qualities of a good leader urging other politicians to emulate him and not wait till the end of their tenure to fulfill their promises to the people in order to be used as a campaign strategy.

She insisted the citizens deserved better reason the leaders must sit up and render worthy services to those who elected them into power.

Bakare wrote: “Dear Politicians y’all need to learn from GOV SEYI MAKINDE of OYO STATE, his people love him because he’s a good man and they started jubilating, chanting his name even before INEC starts counting all the results.

“Now that you know the citizens know better and they deserve the very best y’all need to sit tight and do better.

“Don’t always wait till your tenure is almost over before you start doing the needful in other to use it to contest for 2nd term!

“We’re not dumb and we don’t have amnesia so we’ll always remember everything you do and hold you accountable!

“Don’t get too comfortable because of today’s win, work for the people as promised and see how you’ll be accepted with love and no struggles.”
