He questioned how he could have hidden or stockpiled those weapons at his residence, emphasizing his innocence.
Furthermore, he assured that he is a peace-loving individual and would abide by whatever decision Governor Seyi Makinde takes regarding transport unions in the state.
Auxiliary Cautions Followers and Supporters Against Violence
Auxiliary urged his followers and supporters to refrain from causing trouble or engaging in acts of violence in Ibadan and other parts of the state.
He explicitly expressed his disapproval of any form of violence.
Moreover, he spoke highly of Governor Makinde and his ally, Otunba Seye Famojuro, acknowledging them as his benefactors.
Auxiliary emphasized that no person, regardless of their influence, is bigger than the government.
Auxiliary’s Commitment to Reform and Integration
Auxiliary pledged his compliance and cooperation with the reform and integration of other driver unions into the PMS.
He stated that if the new reform does not favor him, he is willing to accept the outcome.
This demonstrates his willingness to work within the framework of the system and support any changes implemented by the government.
