Oyo State Governor Makinde has stated that the lack of a distinct political ideology among the country’s political leaders is the reason why politicians frequently switch parties.
Makinde made this statement on Thursday at the State Local Government Staff Training School Hall, Secretariat, in Ibadan, the state capital, during the public reading of a book titled “Omituntun’s Political Ideology of Governor Seyi Makinde.”
According to the governor Makinde who was represented by his Chief Press Secretary and Special Advisor on Media, Sulaimon Olanrewaju, Oyo state has taken a new appearance. He emphasised that Omituntun is more than just a catchphrase; it is the reality that people live in.
Governor Makinde noted that the lack of ideological basis among political parties is one of the main issues facing Nigerian politics.
“One of the things that troubles our politics is the absence of ideology. All our parties are almost one and the same. That is why it is so convenient for politicians to migrate from one to the other.
“At night, it is ABC, in the morning- SDP, and by afternoon, ADC because there is no ideology.
“Makinde’s actions are predictable, and that’s what defines ideology. You know what to expect from Republicans in the US, and from Democrats,” he said.
