Advancing reasons for their support for the Governor before the party’s highest administrative organ, the Speaker said Aiyedatiwa has prioritised payment of salaries as at when due, recruited 2,000 health workers and ensured cordial relationship among the legislature, judiciary and the executive arms of government.

On the allegation of betraying the family of the late Akeredolu, the Speaker said: “As far as I’m concerned, I don’t want to join issues with all the aspirants, I’m not an aspirant. I’m a legislator but as far as I’m concerned, the issue of betrayal does not come in. We lost the late Governor to death. The constitution is very clear that when a sitting Governor dies, you know, the deputy governor will have to take over.
