Ondo State government have debunked the rumour of the death of Gov Rotimi Akeredolu. This was made known through the state commissioner for information;
“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, 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”.
