Oyo State Governor, Engr. Seyi Makinde has declared 20 August a work-free day to mark 2024 Isese Day.
In a statement on Wednesday, the governor’s Special Adviser (Media), Sulaimon Olanrewaju said the declaration of the work-free day by Makinde was contained in a circular issued by the Secretary to the State Government, Prof. Olanike Adeyemo.
Makinde had stated last year that every 20 August would be observed as a work-free day in the state in commemoration of Isese Day.
The governor, in the circular, enjoined all traditional worshippers and all citizens to use the day to pray for the peace, unity and stability of the state in particular and the country in general.
