Omoyele Sowore, the African Action Congress’ (AAC) presidential candidate for 2023, alleged the family of former governor of Ondo State, Rotimi Akeredolu of greed.
According to Gistlover, Akeredolu passed away on Wednesday from long-term prostate cancer in a German hospital.
During a Thursday night broadcast on Arise News, Sowore charged that the late governor’s son and wife were acting selfishly by taking advantage of the late governor’s vulnerability.
In addition, the human rights advocate disputed the state government’s assertion that the former governor of Ondo passed away in Germany.
He claimed that the former Ondo governor didn’t die in Germany, as stated by the state government.
He said: “Akeredolu’s wife and son used the late governor’s vulnerable condition to act on their greed.
“Now we are finding out that Akeredolu didn’t die in Germany. They are all lying; he died in Germany.
Speaking further, Sowore said the late Akeredolu didn’t follow the Constitution when he transferred power to his deputy, Lucky Aiyedatiwa when he first travelled to Germany.
He said: “The Constitution was not obeyed in transferring power to the deputy governor.
“A lot would have been resolved a year ago, as there was already available evidence that the governor was not likely to make it.”
