The romance between the Governor & Auxiliary seems over. Must be nice. Governor Seyi Makinde has ordered the immediate dissolution of Disciplinary Committee of Park Management System led by Lamidi Mukaila, a.k.a Auxiliary

Governor Seyi Makinde of Oyo State has ordered the dissolution of the Disciplinary Committee of the Park Management System (PMS), with immediate effect.

Makinde’s order dissolving the PMS Disciplinary Committee, headed by Mr Mukaila Lamidi, popularly called Auxiliary, was conveyed in a statement signed by the reappointed Chief of Staff, Honourable Segun Ogunwuyi.

The statement read, “I have the directive of the Executive Governor of Oyo State, His Excellency, Governor Seyi Makinde to inform you of the dissolution of the Disciplinary Committee, Park Management System with immediate effect from today, Monday, 29th May 2023.”

Tokyo, whose real name is Alhaji Lateef Akinsola, reigned supreme during the Peoples Democratic Party’s era of Senator Rasheed Ladoja and Otunba Alao-Akala as governors in the state. The National Union of Road Transport Workers’ warlord was indeed lord unto himself. For many years, he was inciting violence, chaos and pandemonium in the pacesetter state. On behalf of politicians, he maimed and destroyed at will. He was in control for so many years until his regime of horror was brought to a close by the late Abiola Ajimobi. The man whom thousands of people of the ancient city dread so much like a plague is lucky to be alive today.

After Tokyo came another king of hoodlums, Eleweomo (real name Alhaji Lateef Salako). The modus operandi was the same. They created pandemonium and confusion and snuffed life out of perceived political foes. Eleweomo also established an imperial reign of terror for years in Ibadanland and beyond, until he met his waterloo in a crunchy battle.

Presently, another warlord, Alhaji Lamidi Mukaila, better known as Auxiliary, has emerged in the ancient city. His stock in trade is to always threaten fire and brimstones (reminiscent of Tokyo and Eleweomo days); he also drums it to the hearing of whoever cares to listen to him of his capacity to kill, destroy and maim. The strategy is essentially coercing political opponents into submission.
