“But it is rather surprising and worrisome that the Governor has chosen the part of perversion of justice, by allowing his close aides to go astray in a matter of constitutionality.” Akeredolu Ondo Governor Politics Nigeria

On Tuesday, Governor Akeredolu disclosed he had tested positive for COVID-19, but allayed the people’s fears by asserting he would continue working from self-isolation.

Two weeks ago, Ajayi had defected to the opposition Peoples Democratic Party to run for the party’s governorship ticket, even as he insisted he would not resign his position as Deputy governor. The Commissioner for Information and Orientation, Donald Ojogo, said aside the loss of trust and alleged treachery on Ajayi’s part, governance was not grounded, as Akeredolu remained active in the line of duty.

In a statement issued and signed by his media adviser, Allen Sowore, the Deputy governor took a swipe at his boss for not living up to his legal profession as a Senior Advocate of Nigeria.
