A chieftain of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Ondo State, Adeyeri Stephen, has warned politicians in the state against causing disaffection between Governor Rotimi Akeredolu and his Deputy, Lucky Aiyedatiwa.
Adeyeri, who stated this in a statement signed by him, called on those said to be fanning the embers of hatred to ensure cohesion within the two leaders in order not to retard the development of the state, noting that some politicians are bent on disrupting politics in the state.
Adeyeri, who was reacting to viral news suggesting that the relationship between the Governor and his Deputy had become strained, urged the people of the state to shun rumours, which he described as “grapevine”.
He said, “I would like to clarify that the rumours circulating regarding the relationship between Governor Akeredolu and his Deputy Aiyedatiwa are entirely false and baseless.”
“Both individuals maintain a professional and healthy working relationship, focused on serving the best interests of the people of our state. Any claims suggesting otherwise are mere speculation and should not be taken seriously.”
“Some vested interests and politicians are needlessly causing disaffection and stoking hatred because of abysmal reasons best known to them.
“Governor Akeredolu is a man of peace who represents the true Omoluabi, while Aiyedatiwa is also a gentle man with a calm spirit.
“The Akeredolu-led administration remains committed to the well-being and progress of our state, and we encourage responsible reporting and fact-checking in all matters.”
