Court orders Ondo Assembly to appoint medical panel on Akeredolu’s health

The controversies surrounding the health status of Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu and his failure to resume office since returning from a medical vacation in Germany months ago took a new twist on Wednesday.

This was as an Ondo State High Court, sitting in Akure, granted leave to applicants in a suit, seeking an Order of Mandamus to compel the House of Assembly and the Speaker to constitute a medical panel to assess Governor Akeredolu’s health status.

The suit was brought before the court by Olufemi Lawson, Isijola Kike, Ologun Ayodeji and Arogbo Olaniyi.
