Betty Akeredolu, the wife of Ondo State Governor Rotimi Akeredolu, has shared a photo of her husband at a hospital in an undisclosed location abroad. Governor Akeredolu has been battling an undisclosed ailment and transferred power to his deputy, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, last month.
Initially, the governor was scheduled to resume work on July 6 after seeking medical leave and notifying the Ondo State House Assembly. However, he later wrote another letter extending his leave indefinitely, sparking rumors about his health.
On Friday, Governor Akeredolu’s wife shared a picture to assure the public that he is fast recuperating on his sickbed. In the photo, the governor is dressed in a white tracksuit and is seen sitting on a wheelchair, with his wife standing beside him.
This photo comes on the same day that Governor Akeredolu celebrated his 67th birthday. The picture is likely to provide some relief to concerned citizens who have been curious about the governor’s health during his absence from office.
