The Oyo State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is set to officially commission its brand-new State Secretariat today, February 3, 2026. The facility, located in the state capital, was generously donated by the Executive Governor of Oyo State, Engr. Seyi Makinde.
The official commissioning ceremony will be performed by the PDP National Chairman, Kabiru Tanimu Turaki, SAN. The event which marks a significant milestone for the party, will provide a modern hub designed to streamline operations, strategy, and grassroots mobilization ahead of future political cycles.
The ultra-modern facility is expected to serve as the nerve center for party unity in the state. As part of the official proceedings, the property will be formally handed over to the PDP Board of Trustees (BoT), who serve as the legal custodians of the party’s assets.
A statement regarding the launch noted that the modern facility, located in Ibadan, will serve as a key hub for party operations, strategy, unity, and grassroots mobilization in the state.
The ceremony is expected to draw a significant gathering of political heavyweights from across the country. The National Chairman of the People’s Democratic Party, Barrister Kabiru Tanimu Turaki, and other PDP stalwarts are currently at the opening ceremony, including other members of the National Working Committee (NWC), the Board of Trustees (BoT), Oyo State party executives, and various stakeholders and dignitaries.
The donation by Governor Makinde is being viewed by party faithful as a major boost to the PDP’s presence in the Southwest, reinforcing the governor’s commitment to institutionalizing the party’s structure within the state.
