Akeredolu To Resume May 1

Governor Rotimi Akeredolu of Ondo State will reportedly resume office on May 1, 2023.

Akeredolu is currently on his annual leave and will no longer resume on Wednesday, April 26, 2023, as earlier scheduled and announced.

AllNews Nigeria gathered that this is due to the two-day public holidays observed in celebration of the Eid-el-Fitr which marked the end of Ramadan.

This is according to a press statement released by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Richard Olatunde.

"In clear terms, the two-day public holidays were added to his annual leave calendar, thus extending the leave by two days.

"In the meantime, the Deputy Governor, Mr Lucky Aiyedatiwa will continue to perform the duties of the office of the Governor in acting capacity.

"Governor Akeredolu is upbeat about his resumption and cannot wait to continue to discharge his duties to the people of the state in line with the REDEEMED agenda of his administration.

"The Governor is rejuvenated and imbued with inexorable desire to sustain the tempo of development in the state."
