The Ondo State Governor, Mr Lucky Aiyedatiwa, has said he is sure of winning the governorship ticket of the All Progressives Congress in April and the main election in November this year

Akeredolu was a prophet, predicted I’d be governor – Aiyedatiwa

Aiyedatiwa, who became Ondo State governor less than two months ago, said his predecessor, the late former Governor Rotimi Akeredolu, had predicted that he (Aiyedatiwa) would become the next governor of the Sunshine State. He described his late boss as a prophet who foresaw him becoming the next governor.

The governor stated this at a meeting with the officials and the members of the Lucky Aiyedatiwa Campaign Organisation Foot Soldiers in Akure on Saturday.

“This (my emergence as governor) is what my late boss, Governor Akeredolu, wanted. A lot of people don’t really know Akeredolu; they don’t know that he was a prophet.

“There was a time after he (Akeredolu) returned from a medical vacation that he told the cabinet members during an executive council meeting that ‘Look, Aiyedatiwa will emerge as the next governor.’”

The governor noted that his ambition to contest for governorship position was beyond the mandate of his joint ticket with the late Akeredolu but a sincere mission to transform Ondo State and uplift the standard of living of the people.
