Makinde Hails Oyo Police Commissioner’s Dedication, Diligence

Oyo State governor, Seyi Makinde has commended the state’s commissioner of Police, Ayodele Sonubi, for his sense of dedication and diligence to duty.

Makinde, who lauded the retiring Commissioner in Ibadan, presented a new Toyota Land Cruiser Prado to the CP through his executive assistant on Security, CP Sunday Odukoya (rtd).

The CP, who assumed duty in Oyo State on June 16, 2024, will retire in a couple of weeks.

Responding, Sonubi appreciated Makinde for the honour, saying “This is a big honour and I don’t know what I have done to merit this. But I know it has pleased God and His Excellency to appreciate me.

“I pray that the Lord, who has been with him and has been upholding Oyo State for him to provide good leadership for us, will always be there for him.

“The legacy is already in place in the state and it will forever live after him and I wish him greater heights.

“We have also learnt from his leadership and we know he is not just a governor; he is a leader and builder of people.

“I appreciate him for affecting my life positively at this crucial time. Where would I have got something like this? It pays to be dedicated and understand the people you are working with. No effort is a waste.

“People see you, they study you and have records of what you are doing. And, at the appropriate time, God knows how to use someone like His Excellency to reward an individual like me.”

Sonubi equally commended the governor for always supporting security agencies in the state by providing everything needed for them to discharge their duties.

“When we look at the security situation in Nigeria, all of us who are security agents try to always put in our best. But what normally aids us to achieve more is the support we get from stakeholders and he has never failed us in providing all that is needed in the discharge of our duties,” he added.
