Rotimi Akeredolu, SAN
This message was shared on the official Facebook of Rotimi Akeredolu, SAN yesterday after Ondo people started questioning his absence. Read it below:
Akeredolu Campaign Platform (ACP) regrets the inability of our candidate Oluwarotimi Akeredolu SAN to attend today’s Governorship debate organised by Channels Television.
It is unfortunate that the debate is coming at a time when our grassroots rallies are at their peaks.
As we write this, Akeredolu is tucked in the deep riverine communities of Ilaje Local government most of which have no access to electricity to watch Television.
In view of the demand of this hectic campaign schedule, we therefore regret our inability to honour Channel TV's call for debate within the remaining time.
Signed.
Kunle Adebayo.
Secretary, Communications
Akeredolu Campaign Organisation
