Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Odunayo Akeredolu of the Sunshine State of Ondo has reportedly lampooned some South-western public figures in a recent public occasion.
Governor Rotimi Akeredolu
Governor of Ondo state, Rotimi 'Aketi' Akeredolu has lampooned two prominent Yoruba leaders, Yinka Odumakin of the Afenifere and Gani Adams of the Oodua Peoples Congress(OPC), labelling them as 'thieves' and 'fraudsters'.
Information made available to
PoliticsNGR revealed that Akeredolu, who was represented by his SSA on special duties, Mr Doyin Odewale, made these statements during the Inauguration of the leadership of the National Association of Ondo State Students (NAOSS) held in Ajasin Auditorium, Akure.
The governor stated that Gani Adams was a mere carpenter who rose to power through 'thuggery'. He described Odumakin as a person who had no achievement in life other than being a Punch newspaper reporter.
In his words;
"Gani Adams is a Carpenter who metamorphosed to a businessman, in the name of thuggery. Yinka Odumakin has never done any other thing in his life, apart from being a reporter in Punch Newspaper at a time. These are celebrated frauds in the society, who parade themselves and Speak as Yoruba leaders without consulting the people they claim to lead in decision making”.
Ridicules Afenifere and 2014 national conference
Aketi also attacked the Afenifere group, accusing them of being responsible for the bad leadership and underdevelopment in the south-west. He also condemned the 2014 national conference, adding that "they gathered themselves together and shared billions of tax payers money, all in the name of National Conference".
