As the crisis in Ondo state rages on, the State Deputy Governor, Hon Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa has cried out that he has no hand in any planned protest against Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN.
Aiyedatiwa, in a statement he personally signed in Akure today stated that no group has his endorsement to hold any protest in the state.
Already, the State House of Assembly has divided into two factions over the issue of impeachment of the Deputy Governor.
His words: “My attention has been drawn to some false publications in which it was alleged that a group loyal to me is planning to hold a protest against the Governor of Ondo State, Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, SAN, CON, today in Akure.
“This is to inform the good and peace loving people of Ondo State that I am not aware of any such protest and no group or association has my endorsement to carry out public demonstration of any kind.
“I affirm my commitment to the ongoing reconciliation efforts of the National leadership of our party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) on the political situation in our State which are already yielding the much needed tranquility in the State.
“Therefore, I enjoin the security operatives in the State to continue to maintain peace and ensure that the good people of Ondo State go about their daily activities without any disturbance,” he added.
