He quashed the reports while addressing reporters at Fashola Farm in Oyo State on Saturday, and emphasized his independence in shaping his political path.

“We didn’t do this because somebody has presidential ambition. No comment, nothing. But all I can say to you is, I’m old enough. If I want to do something, I will come out and say, ‘This is what I want to do.’ So, no speculation; nobody can push my agenda. I will push my agenda when the time comes,” Makinde declared.
