He said: “We have been meeting the governors in the all the Yoruba-speaking states on how to implement the regional integration and there is no regret on this, even Governor Mimiko in his acceptance speech, promised to join his colleagues in the South-West region to pursue this regional agenda.”

Speaking on endorsement of Fayemi for second term, Oshun said: “There is nothing wrong in allowing a performing governor or any elected official to continue in office.
