The gubernatorial aspirant of the PDP in oyo state Engnr Seyi Makinde has accused the state government of being haunted by its own shadows
Referring to threats to demolish one of the most successful radio Stations in Nigeria, the Fresh FM based in Ibadan,  Makinde said that it was not unexpected because oyo state government was one of the few states in the federation that failed to implement the Freedom of information Bill.
In the statement signed by Prince Dotun Oyelade for the Seyi Makinde organisation, government has been collecting tenement rate from Fresh FM for years only to come up with a disgraceful excuse to undermine press freedom which is the cornerstone of democracy.
According to the statement,  government is brought into disrepute when it responds with draconian rule to issues that it perceives are detrimental to its popularity.
Makinde also referred to the Pronouncement of support for the Federal government policy on ranching only for the same government to deny it’s unpopular decision days after supporting it as a sign of government inconsistencies on most matters concerning the state.
