Ondo Deputy Governor Begs Akeredolu

The Deputy Governor of Ondo State, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, has apologised to his boss, Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu.

The embattled Deputy Governor tendered his apology when addressing a world press conference on Thursday.

Aiyedatiwa called for an end to what he termed needless crisis in the SouthWest State.

According to him, he was saddened by the embarrassment and discomfort due to barrage of negative news over the crisis in the last few months.

The Deputy Governor said there were no issue between him and the Governor but political actors capitalised on his boss absence to create crisis for their selfish interest.

Recall that the Ondo State House of Assembly had suspended the impeachment process against the deputy governor following the intervention of the national leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The Speaker had, at the Abuja meeting with the APC National Chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje, and other party stalwarts, announced that the House had suspended the impeachment process.

The House subsequently called on Aiyedatiwa to withdraw all the suits filed against the lawmakers and Akeredolu.
