Absentee Gov: Tension heightens in Ondo as APC group joins PDP to kick against Akeredolu’s absence

The absence of the Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu from the state has continued to generate reactions and tension in the state, with calls on the governor to either resume in the state or throw in the towel if he was not capable to continue in office.

In the latest development, a group within the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Ondo Liberation Initiative (OLI) gave Akeredolu a seven-day ultimatum to address the people of the state.

In the alternative, the group threatened to seek an interpretation of Section 193 (2) of the 1999 Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria as relates to the transfer of power to the Deputy Governor in the absence of the governor of a state.
