Ondo State Governor, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu, has denied report that he would soon return to Germany for medical vacation.
Governor Akeredolu, who described the news as wicked and misleading, said the report was concocted and planted by ‘drowning politicians who are still nursing the pains of defeated expectations.’
Akeredolu stated that his safe return from medical vacation caused the embattled politicians sleepless nights and gnashing their teeth in regrets of their failed evil plans.
Speaking through his chief press secretary, Richard Olatunde, Akeredolu, said his administration was committed to addressing genuine concerns of the people of the state.
He said governance was not about showbiz where the governor embarked on fashion parades at the market square to annouce his presence in the state.
The statement read: “We understand the importance of development as the major driver of peaceful, thriving and egalitarian society.
“Governor Akeredolu’s administration has consistently demonstrated its dedication to the state’s progress. Recently, he approved the recruitment of medical professionals and healthcare workers in demonstration of our commitment to enhancing the state’s healthcare system.
“To boost revenue generation, Governor Akeredolu has approved the fresh recruitment of 150 staff for the state Internal Revenue Service. Additionally, modern tax stations are being constructed in Ondo and Ikare, along with a Revenue court in Akure.
“We value the welfare of our workers, and as such, Governor Akeredolu recently approved the payment of outstanding leave bonuses. Salaries for workers in the state have been paid up to date.
“Contrary to the claims made by the opposition, Governor Akeredolu is diligently fulfilling his duties. Activities are ongoing in various Ministries, Departments, and Agencies (MDAs), and the governor is actively engaged in addressing state matters.
“We urge members of the public to dismiss this false news and not be swayed by the lied and misleading information spread by those with ulterior motives. Governor Akeredolu remains dedicated to serving the people of Ondo State and driving progress in our great state.”
