Damisi Ojo, Akure
Ondo State Deputy Governor Agboola Ajayi has declared the ‘rift’ between him and Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu as a normal occurrence in politics.
He denied any conflict with his boss over the 2020 governorship election.
Ajayi spoke at the weekend while addressing the people of Apoi in Ese-odo Local Government Area of the state,.
Also yesterday, a socio-political group in the state, Patriotic Builders (PB) warned Akeredolu to be wary of Ajayi’s utterances.
Ajajyi blamed political jobbers seeking patronage from the government for escalating the disagreement between him and his boss.
Things are no longer rosy between Ajayi and his boss over the re-election bid of the governor.
Besides, Ajayi is beleived to be hobnobbing with other parties in order to contest the governorship election.
But Ajayi, who spoke at the “Praise Night” organised by the Apoi people, said they should not worry about the “rumour” that he was fighting the governor.
He alleged that those seeking to cause crisis in the state executive council in order to reap political benefits ahead of next year’s governorship election were behind the rumour.
Ajayi said: “You must have been hearing one or two comments here and there about a conflict between me and the governor. Don’t worry yourself. It is a normal thing in politics.
“The governor and myself are doing very well. We are brothers and we are working together for the progress of Ondo State.”
Ajayi also conveyed the governor’s greetings to the people and wished them merry Christmas, adding that they should be mindful of job-seekers whose stock-in-trade was cheap blackmail and political propaganda.
The deputy governor admonished the people to pray for the governor who is their kinsman, “since his mother is from this kingdom.”

But the Patriotic Builders (PB), in a statement by its State Coordinator, Badmus Anifowose, said the governor should not be deceived by the public display of loyalty by Ajayi.
PB described Ajayi as a political chameleon, “who will go about during the day pledging loyalty to Akeredolu and in the night damaging the political reputation of his boss.
The group alleged in its statement: “Since the inception of this administration in Ondo State, Ajayi has been plotting to oust his boss from office. Apart from oiling his structure in his former political party, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Ajayi has also successfully built a structure in APC through some former exco members that were sacked by Akeredolu.
