Hundreds of people across the globe have continued to mourn the shocking demise of the Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu better known as Aketi.
Newsmen gathered that, Akeredolu died in Lagos on Wednesday, December 27 2023.
It was learnt that he was managed by State House doctors up to his death because they could not fly him abroad.
“Akeredolu is dead; he died in Lagos,” a reliable source told newsmen.
“They were looking for dialysis machines to be sent to his secret location in Lagos last week.”
Recall that the ailing governor returned to Nigeria in September following a three-month medical leave in Germany.
Recently, he proceeded on another medical leave after he was directed by President Bola Tinubu to hand over power to his deputy, Lucky Aiyedatiwa.
His deputy, Aiyedatiwa has been standing in as Acting Governor.
Following the announcement of his death, Netizens have continued to pay their last respects to Aketi.
