Engr. Seyi Makinde on Thursday said he paid a visit to former President, Olusegun Obasanjo to seek wisdom.
The Governor-elect admitted that Oyo state was “in a bad shape but pledged to apply wisdom to make things better.
The former president advised him not to run a Democratic system that would put the government of the state in his pocket.
He also advised Makinde to shun corruption.

Obasanjo said Makinde has the onerous task of striving to transform the capital of former old Western Region, urging the people to keep supporting him to succeed when eventually sworn-in.
The elder statesman gave the advice when he received the Governor-elect, his Deputy, Rauf Olaniyan, Oyo state chairman of PDP, Kunmi Mustapha, Bose Adedibu, wife of late Lamidi Adedibu, Lagos state PDP chairman, Dominic Agboola among others at his Olusegun Obasanjo Presidential Library, Abeokuta, Ogun state.
The ex-Head of States described such government that serves narrow interest as “democratic so sa po”, meaning pocketing democratic system for personal gains against true democratic system.
