….Ondo: Akeredolu’s Aide reveals “Real reason we resigned”
After the death of Ondo state governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, and the swearing in of his deputy, Lucky Aiyedatiwa on Wednesday, two Aides of the late governor, announced their resignation from their positions.
One of Akeredolu’s Aides has revealed why they resigned from office, same day.
He told Vanguard that they resigned because of their loyalty to Akeredolu.
“Nobody should expect us to have a divided loyalty. Our loyalty is to Akeredolu even until death.
“There’s no doubt even if the new governor don’t victimise us, his supporters would victimise us if we remain in government.
“I think the best thing to do in such a situation is to resign and allow the new governor to empower those he used to discredit the late governor when he was still alive. They’re his foot soldiers. Let’s see how far they can go.
“We’ve no apology for being loyal to Governor Akeredolu, he was our benefactor and he remains.
“I think the new governor should get down to serious business and shut his door to all those sycophants milling around him looking for patronage,” he said.
