He warned Nigerians, especially the youths that no one should lose his life supporting politicians.

He advised those who intend to die because of politicians to have a change of minds.

He then cautioned that as Nigeria moves towards the 2023 general elections, no one should fight or die because of any politician.

“If you look at the former governors in Ekiti State – Governor Segun Oni, Governor Ayo Fayose and the incumbent Governor Kayode Fayemi, they have governed the state at one time or the other but they were not in the same party. So, those of you who want to die because of us politicians, be careful.

“Politics is not something that should cause anybody to lose his or her life. We are moving towards the electioneering period, and I just want to use this opportunity to appeal to you all.

“If you also look at this marriage, the bride and groom are from Christian and Muslim families. So, people who also want to always fight on religious grounds should have a rethink.

“I want to congratulate Olamide and Oluwalonigba. This is the beginning of a journey and I pray that it will produce male and female children”.

The wedding was attended by Governor Kayode Fayemi and former Governor Segun Oni, both political rivals in the last APC governorship primary in Ekiti.

Also in attendance were Governor Nyesom Wike and former Governor Olagunsoye Oyinlola.

Makinde, Wike, Oyinlola, Fayose and Oni all belong to PDP, while Fayemi is of the APC.
