After Failing To Conduct LG Polls For Two Years, RotimiAkeredolu Set To Create LCDAs As ‘Sweet Juice’ To Loyalists | Sahara Reporters The 'Sunshine State’, as fondly called, has a total number of 18 LGA and it is currently overseen by...READ MORE:
In an apparent move to compensate many party loyalists who are yet to get any"sweet juice" in his two-year-old government, Governor of Ondo State, Rotimi Akeredolu, has shown his intention to create some Local Council Development Areas in the state.
SaharaReporters gathered that the Governor was visiting some towns in the state for a"thank you visit" to kick off his statewide tour when he declared his intentions. The 'Sunshine State’, as fondly called, has a total number of 18 LGA and it is currently overseen by Caretaker Chairmen appointed by Akeredolu.
Then, Akeredolu set up members of the Ondo State Independent Electoral Commission with a view to conducting the elections, but the commission has remained a shadow. "The governorship poll is coming by next year, and Governor Akeredolu is now looking for a way to play us and seek support. He can't succeed,” one of them said.
