Two prominent groups in Ondo State, the Conscience of Progressive Change (CPC) and the Ondo Elites Assembly (OEA), have launched a scathing attack on Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa for his conspicuous absence at the airport on Friday when the body of the late Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu was returned home.
Describing the governor’s non-participation in the solemn reception as “cruel” and “disrespectful,” the groups, in separate press statements on Saturday, demanded an explanation for his decision not to stand alongside the late governor’s family in this moment of grief.
Remi Ogunmola, Coordinator of the CPC, lamented, “Governor Aiyedatiwa’s absence at this crucial moment is not only insensitive but also sends a chilling message about his regard for the office he occupies and the legacy of his predecessor.
