Akeredolu not incapacitated, Ondo govt replies Adamu
The Ondo State government says Rotimi Akeredolu, governor of the state, is not incapacitated.
It said on Tuesday that the governor would return to duty soon.
The clarification came after National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Abdullahi Adamu, on Monday said Akeredolu was in a state of “extreme incapacity”.
Adamu said this when he met with state chairmen of the party in Abuja.
Akeredolu had embarked on a 21-day leave on June 7 and was expected to return on July 6.
However, he wrote to the state House of Assembly, extending his medical leave.
In a statement on Tuesday, the state Commissioner for Information, Bamidele Ademola-Olateju, said the governor was not in a critical situation.
He stated, “He is, evidently, not in any critical state that should warrant this clearly reprehensible conduct as he still sent a post to the executive council committee platform yesterday.
“Mr. Governor is not incapacitated. He will return to his duty as soon as the doctors certify him fully fit to do so.”
