The PUNCH reports on Tuesday that Akeredolu wrote to the state House of Assembly, notifying it of his proceeding on a 21-day medical vacation and handed over to Aiyedatiwa to act as governor till he returns.
Ayedatiwa said, “I note the concerns of our people about governance in Ondo State and all rumours and insinuations making the rounds in the state. Let me aver without mincing words that rumours about the disruption of government activities are misplaced and only arose as a result of impatience and lack of proper understanding of the running of the machinery of government.
“In any case, such misrepresentations and baseless allusions are to be expected when political gladiators, by their activities in the build-up to party primaries and gubernatorial elections in any state, try to heat the polity. Ondo State cannot be an exception.”“Mr Governor has laid a solid foundation for one administration in the state and there is, undoubtedly, no politically debilitating division in the government.
He urged the people of the state not to relent in their prayers for “Akeredolu’s quick recovery, so that he can resume duty after his medical vacation, to continue with his good works for the betterment of Ondo State in particular and Nigeria at large.”All rights reserved.
