Aiyedatiwa Addresses Ondo People As Acting Governor
  • PublishedDecember 14, 2023

The Acting Governor of Ondo State, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, on Thursday, addressed the people of the “Sunshine State” upon assumption of office.

Mr. Aiyedatiwa made the call in a statewide broadcast to the people of the state in Akure.

Recall that the state House of Assembly on Wednesday pronounced Mr. Aiyedatiwa as the acting governor of the state, as Mr. Akeredolu continued to recuperate from illness.

Aiyedatiwa, in a televised address to the people of Ondo, said the government has recouped the gaps in the last two months, and thanked Ondo residents for standing by the truth.

He prayed for the speedy recovery of Akeredolu, who recently embarked on another medical leave to Germany.

Akeredolu who was said to be suffering from cancer, had been to the European country (on April 3, 2023, and July 10, 2023) for treatment during which he handed over to Aiyedatiwa in an acting capacity.

He returned to the country on September 7 and wrote the state House of Assembly on his resumption as governor, but failed to return to Ondo State, only to stay at his residence in Ibadan.
