Earlier today, we commissioned the Oyo State Rule of Law Enforcement Authority (OYRLEA) office in Ibadan. This institution was established in fulfilment of our promise to create a framework to enforce existing environmental and road traffic laws amongst others. Our goal is to ensure a safe and secure environment that will support sustainable development in our dear State.
Let me once again thank the Chairperson, Honourable Justice Aderonke Aderemi (retd), all members of the OYRLEA team and the security agencies who are working together to achieve the goal of a safer and more secure Oyo State.

Kerosene Prices Approach N4,000 Per Litre as Household Living Costs Rise Across Nigeria
Household kerosene prices surged across Nigeria in April 2026, with residents of Sokoto, Kebbi and Lagos paying close to N4,000 per litre, according to the National Bureau of Statistics (NBS).
The NBS Household Kerosene Price Watch showed Sokoto recorded the highest average price at N3,965.10 per litre, followed by Kebbi at N3,808.75 and Lagos at N3,790.90. Katsina, Edo, Niger, Plateau and Zamfara also recorded high prices above N3,300 per litre.
At the lower end, Bayelsa recorded the cheapest average price at N1,815.40 per litre, while Kogi and Yobe sold at N1,982.02 and N2,235.77 respectively.
Kerosene, once a major cooking fuel in Nigeria, used to sell between N50 and N100 per litre before subsidy removal in 2016 and the continued depreciation of the naira triggered sharp price increases.
Many households have now switched to cooking gas or charcoal as kerosene becomes increasingly unaffordable.
The report also showed major price increases between March and April 2026, with Kaduna recording the highest rise at 35.16 per cent, followed by Bayelsa, Katsina, Imo and Akwa Ibom.

During H.E. Governor Seyi Makinde’s visit to LAUTECH Teaching Hospital yesterday, 64 security guards working for a contractor were approved to be converted to ad hoc staff of LAUTECH TH moving from N18,000 monthly to new minimum wage. Full video: youtu.be/qSWPBdh2beU?si=i6f7…
Today, we visited the LAUTECH Teaching Hospital in Ogbomoso to meet with health workers. After listening to their grievances, I committed to tackling the issues raised as follows:
To ensure a Governing Council is constituted by the end of this week.
To increase the monthly subvention and provide funds to cover a monthly stipend of ₦80,000 for 65 non-staff security personnel working at the hospital while instructing that they should be integrated into the hospital’s system as ad hoc staff.
To complete the LAUTECH Teaching Hospital Annexe, Oyo before the end of our administration.
To pay promotion arrears 2018-2024 remuneration in three equal instalments in October-December 2025
To pay minimum wage arrears from January-August 2025 in three equal instalments in October-December 2025.
I also said that some of the other issues raised will be addressed by the Governing Council once they are in place.

Incase you all forgot where we are coming from on Olodo Bridge.
The 2-span Olodo Bridge has been completed and was opened to traffic by His Excellency Barr Abdulraheem Adebayo Lawal this morning. The project will not only improve traffic congestion in the area, it will also reduce the occurrence of flooding. Watch the transformation from groundbreaking to completion.
