Gov Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo is dead

The Governor of Ondo State, Rotimi Akeredolu, is dead.

He died at the age of 67

According to family sources, the Governor died today (Wednesday) in Lagos where he was managed by State House doctors until his death.

“They were looking for dialysis machines to be sent to his secret location in Lagos last week.”

Akeredolu who could not fly abroad due to his condition died at the gate of 67.

The ailing governor returned to Nigeria in September following a three-month medical leave in Germany and only recently proceeded on another one after he was directed by President Bola Tinubu to hand over power to his deputy, Lucky Aiyedatiwa.

His deputy, Aiyedatiwa has been standing in as Acting Governor.

Following his return to Nigeria in September, Akeredolu stayed in Ibadan, the Oyo State capital and tried to govern his state from there, leading to public outrage.
