Ondo State Governor, Mr. Rotimi Akeredolu, has rejected the apology offered by his deputy, Mr. Lucky Aiyedatiwa, regarding the ongoing political crisis in the state. In response to Aiyedatiwa's apology, Dr. Doyin Odebowale, the Senior Special Assistant on Special Duties and Strategy to the Governor, expressed the governor's refusal to accept the apology and insisted that his deputy must answer questions before the state House of Assembly.
Aiyedatiwa had blamed the ongoing crisis on desperate politicians in the state and stated that he remained loyal to the governor. He denied any involvement in sponsoring protests against Akeredolu. Aiyedatiwa also commended Akeredolu and the national leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for their intervention in resolving the crisis.
However, Akeredolu's spokesperson disagreed with the deputy governor's statement that the governor had intervened in the crisis by persuading the House to embrace political solutions. He also refuted the denial of sponsorship of protests against the governor. Odebowale urged the deputy governor to address the allegations of misconduct brought against him by the House of Assembly. The political crisis in Ondo State remains a contentious issue that has raised concerns and cast a shadow on the state's political landscape.
