The Governor of Ondo State, Rotimi Akeredolu has broken his
silence over the drama that resulted from his State of health.
Exola TV had earlier
reported that the Ondo State First Lady, Betty Ayanwu Akeredolu had in a
voice record raised an alarm over the antics of the Special Adviser to Governor
Akeredolu on Public and Inter-governmental affairs, Mrs. Olubunmi Ademosu to
her husband’s health condition. According to Akeredolu’s wife, Ademosu had been
feeding her husband with native concoctions gotten from fake pastors.
She further alleged that the female SA was plotting to be
Deputy Governor in the event of Akeredolu’s demise.
The man at the center of the storm, Arakunrin Rotimi Akeredolu has now reacted to
insinuations that he is battling a life-threatening illness.
The governor in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary,
Richard Olabode on Tuesday, Jan. 17 2023, said that he had been under the
weather for a while but he is recuperating.
The governor noted that his state of health has not in any
way affected his official duties as governor of the state.
Akeredolu stated that he has been engaged in rigorous
activities since last week and urged the people to dismiss the rumors that he
is not active.
The statement reads: "Governor Akeredolu, just like
every other mere mortal has had some health challenges for which he has since
received treatment and recuperated speedily. Since the Governor is not a
superhuman and the immunity his office enjoys does not extend to physical
wellness or otherwise, the health issue is therefore not an unusual one.
"However, contrary to speculations and insinuations
making the round, the Governor though frail, is discharging his official
functions.
"The Governor will continue to discharge his official
duties to the good people of Ondo State in line with the Redeemed Agenda of his
administration while he finds quality time to rest for renewed vigour and
strength just like any man in his situation."
