The Ondo State government has said the state Governor, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu is very much alive.
This is coming on the heels of the death rumour of the governor.
In a message the state Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Bamidele Ademola-Olateju, said “though the Governor has been indisposed for hh, he has been attending to state matters and delegating functions to functionaries of the Government, when necessary.”
THE FULL STATEMENT:
Ignore The Rumor On The Governor of Ondo State, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Odunayo Akeredolu SAN, CON
We have been inundated with calls and messages concerning the state of health of the Governor, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN, CON. We had chosen to ignore this wicked fabrication until it appeared that certain persons seek to draw political mileage from the disinformation.
Though the Governor has been indisposed for hh, he has been attending to state matters and delegating functions to functionaries of the Government, when necessary. We enjoin the members of the public to ignore the rumour. Aketi is very much alive.
Signed
Bamidele Ademola-Olateju
Ondo State Commissioner for Information and Orientation
