🏭🍬 Governor Makinde Partners With Indian Consortium To Launch Oyo Sugar Factory In Iseyin


ISEYIN, Nigeria, June 30, 2026 - The Oyo State Government has accelerated its manufacturing expansion and agricultural industrialization blueprints following the formal commencement of the pre-commissioning phases at the Oyo Sugar and Derivatives Industries Limited factory. Supervised under the investment facilitation portfolios of Governor Seyi Makinde, the high-capacity production plant represents a massive private capital inflow targeted at the state's western agrarian corridor.


The technical rollout is guided by an elite engineering team from Saba Exports Limited-a leading Indian sugar technology conglomerate led by Managing Director Khan Waseem Akhlaq. Domiciled structurally in Iseyin, the commercial facility is engineered to run a daily manufacturing output capacity of twenty-four to twenty-seven tonnes of premium brown sugar alongside eighteen tonnes of high-yield industrial molasses.


The administration confirmed that establishing automated, decentralized processing factories is an absolute prerequisite for generating rural employment and protecting local smallholders from crop wastage. The State Ministry of Agriculture has synchronized its extension services to support one thousand independent sugarcane farmers, integrating their seasonal harvests into the plant's core raw material supply chain state-wide.

🚨⏳ Governor Makinde Extends 16 Hour Regional Curfew Across Border Local Councils


IBADAN, Nigeria, June 26, 2026 - The Oyo State Government has expanded its ongoing emergency internal security protocols following an executive order issued by Governor Seyi Makinde extending the active border-zone curfew by an additional twenty-four hours. The strategic modification maintains the strict enforcement framework originally deployed across ten contiguous local government councils.

The defensive operational window stays locked from 4 PM until 8 AM daily, specifically penalizing unauthorized civilian vehicular and pedestrian transit around the perimeters of the Old Oyo National Park. The targeted council jurisdictions include Oriire, Oorelope, Irepo, Saki West, Saki East, Atisbo, Itesiwaju, Iseyin, Olorunsogo, and Atiba, where administrative networks remain closed to external traffic.

The state security council clarified that extending the tactical pause is an absolute prerequisite for enabling combined defense squads to complete deep forest sweeps cleanly. The Ministry of Information has advised residents to remain calm inside their residences during the restricted timeblocks, assuring that internal safety metrics are being sustained uniformly state-wide.
