I’m Not Planning To Remove My Deputy – Gov. Lucky Aiyedatiwa

Gov. Lucky Aiyedatiwa

Ondo State Governor Mr Lucky Aiyedatiwa has refuted an alleged plan to remove his deputy, Dr Olayide Adelami. He recently described the reports as a mere rumour, and Nigerians have been reacting.

While recognising his deputy at the inauguration of the Ayegunle-Iwaro Oka Akoko Expressway in Akoko South-West Local Government Area of the state on Friday, the Governor confirmed that the viral video was the handiwork of those seeking attention.

Aiyedatiwa added that he is grateful to Olayide Adelami for holding forth for him whenever he has had to travel.

He said, “Mr Deputy Governor, Dr Olayide Adelami, I acknowledged your presence here.

Thank you for holding forth for me yesterday, when I had to travel. Worthy amiable Deputy Governor. Some people are spreading one fake video. Those people want to hear words.

They claimed they want to remove the deputy governor. For where? Where did they want to remove him (deputy governor) from? Don’t answer them please; they are only looking for relevance. That can’t happen because I’m also a prophet of God.

Since assuming office, our administration has embarked on and completed numerous projects that has positively impacted our people, and this commissioning underscores our government’s resolve to deliver infrastructure that enhances the well-being of citizens.

The approximately six-kilometre Aiyegunle–Iwaro Oka Road is a multi-million-naira project, designed and executed with quality materials to withstand daily traffic, including heavy-duty vehicles.”

WOW.
