The Ondo governor is receiving treatment for leukemia and has been undergoing chemotherapy in Nigeria, which SaharaReporters learnt had been knocking him out for up to 10 hours after every medication.

Governor Rotimi Akeredolu’s son has sought the assistance of President Bola Tinubu to get an air ambulance to return his ailing father to Germany where he had been receiving treatment.

The Ondo governor is receiving treatment for leukemia and has been undergoing chemotherapy in Nigeria, which SaharaReporters learnt had been knocking him out for up to 10 hours after every medication.

Family sources told SaharaReporters on Tuesday that Akeredolu’s condition has worsened.

“He is no longer able to speak,” one of the sources said.

According to sources, this prompted his son, Babajide, to ask for the President’s help to speedily fly his ailing father to Germany.

“Akeredolu’s son is seeking permission and help from Tinubu to get an air ambulance to return his father to Germany,” one of the sources said.

SaharaReporters earlier today (Tuesday) reported that President Tinubu directed Governor Akeredolu to transfer power to his deputy, Lucky Aiyedatiwa and the Senator representing Ondo South, Jimoh Ibrahim.

Akeredolu’s son, Babajide, who was appointed by the governor (father) in November 2021 as the Director General of the Performance and Project Implementation Monitoring Unit, Office of the Governor of Ondo State (PPIMU), was also in attendance.

SaharaReporters further reported that the transfer of power would be done by electronic signature (e-signature) as the ailing governor is too weak to sign any letter or document.

Tinubu reportedly told people at the meeting he had summoned to resolve the leadership crisis in Ondo on Monday that Akeredolu was incapacitated and could not sign a letter anymore.

Monday’s emergency meeting was the second one summoned by the President to resolve the leadership crisis in the state following the governor’s absence from office since July 2023.

E no suppose be Aketi wey dey pass through all these...

May God heal him

.

So now you love your dad...?

Why did you bring him home in the first place?
A leukemia patient has no business running a local council let a lone a state.

Wow, the man must really be sick. I pray for quick recovery

I don’t know why resignation is an evil thing in the sight of Nigerian politicians

The Lord will perfect his healing.

I won't say what's on my mind now.

Why will a 60 year old embark on chemotherapy , that's like suicide....well this air ambulance story is clearly a lie because Akeredolu doesn't need to beg anyone if he needs an air ambulance

Yaradua was incommunicado, no body knew if he was alive or dead

Aketi is still commiunicating and performing his duty from his Ibadan home, while he gets treated in UCH

shatap na lie .Aketi should resign

This is very tough time for the Akeredolus. May God heal their patriach in Jesus name. Amen!

I wish him quick recovery. But his deputy will be calling on the God of goodluck jonathan to come and do wonders

That Babajide is a very stupid boy

ivolt:

Help me ask him and his mother. Allow the man well, they wheelchaired him to Nigeria because of office pecks. Desperate people

Why?

What goes around comes around. RIPP President Yaradua

Benwallt:

The man is to blame for recruiting his family members into government positions.
If he had let his son face his personal business instead of giving him political appointment,
they would have been more interested in his wellbeing than political office.

Which official duty is he performing? I'm a Yoruba person however, you people should stop supporting rubbish. Why fly him to Nigeria when he's not yet okay medically? Why is he afraid of his deputy taking over as the acting governor? One thing I know is that Tinubu can ensure Akeredolu is not impeached while he recuperates. I see that people criticize when they are not the one in power but once they get hold of power, they turned something else. Is it that bad that he could not trust his deputy to take over or it's the wife that is manipulating the people? I like Akeredolu for his boldness speaking to the atrocities of the Fulani herdsmen in Southwest but his health is much more important this period.

Treatment of leaukimia has phases, and the phase he is in, treating him at UCH and him going from his Ibadan home that he has lived for several decades is a good line of action

Do you even know the character of the Deputy?!

.

Like Akeredolu is not rich enough to afford one?
I smell fake news from Sahara reporters.

Why did they bring him back in the first place?..

If we talk now, they'll say we talk too much.

Akeredolu's Igbo wife wanted to hold on to power at all cost, so she brought her ailing husband back home to pose in pictures and claim he is fit.. all to what end?

If anything should happen to Mr. Akeredolu.. his wife and kids should be held responsible.

The God of Jonathan that allowed the death of superiors for their deputies to take over, I'm sure you wouldn't pray to that God if Jonathan was your deputy.

It is very tough when we stare at death.

The amount to be spent on Air Ambulance could be used to bring the specialists and their equipment here on medical tourism, treating not only Akeredolu but others in the same situation.

May God save him.

He was among those saying yar'adua should hand over. It got to his turn he wanted to sit tight.
