Makinde, who was received by the supreme head of the church worldwide, Solomon Alao, also said he had a 30-minute fruitful deliberation with the Inspector General of Police (IGP), Mohammed Adamu, over the situation reports on the injunction restraining the sacked chairmen from the forceful takeover of local government secretariats in the state.

Makinde, however, said his administration needs prayers so that he would be able to deliver dividends of democracy, which he promised, adding that the recent forceful takeover of local government secretariats by sacked council chairmen was a calculated move by the All Progressives Congress (APC) to cause troubles for the Peoples Democratic Party-led administration in the state.

He said he would not make further comment on the issue because the development has become a subject of litigation.
