It is a more difficult job in our African culture when one is compelled to do so for a younger person. Here I am with the difficult job of singing a dirge for Oluwarotimi Odunayo Akeredolu, my beloved brother, confidant, political soulmate and governor of Ondo State.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI cannot fairly capture in words Rotimi\u2019s towering figure and his human essence. In a challenging moment of our statehood when marauding agents of darkness spread their tentacles across our country, Rotimi was a strong voice in wilderness calling us to rethink our security architecture so we can have a more secure nation. His unrelenting advocacy led to the birth of the local police in the South West.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRotimi was a man of ideas and action. While he was with us, he taught us the power of action and service. In Ondo State where he had the honour to serve as the Governor in the last 6 years, he served his people with absolute loyalty, dedication and forthrightness.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis footprints dot the entire landscape in the hundreds of kilometres of roads he built, the many school he built and healthcare facilities that he provided. During the dark hours when marauding agents of darkness visited the state and killed defenceless citizens where 40 worshippers of the Catholic Church of Owo were killed on June 5, 2022, Rotimi\u2019s leadership qualities as a true statesman and compassionate leader radiated brightly to the world.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe was a mourner-in-chief who guided his people through an agonising period. Today, I MOURN a fighter and fearless defender of truth and the masses.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cMy personal journey with Rotimi started as joint members of the progressive family. We fought many battles together to restore progressive governance in the South West, Edo State and Nigeria as a whole. During this uncertain period, Rotimi was resolute and unflinching.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe showed uncommon courage as member of our legal team in our battles to reclaim our stolen mandates in Ekiti, Ondo, Edo and Osun States. A gallant lawyer and one of the finest of the legal profession. I beckoned on him to contest for the governorship position of Ondo State in 2012.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEven though he didn\u2019t make it in first attempt his enthusiasm and determination to serve his people never diminished. He eventually made it to the Alagbaka Government House in his second attempt in the 2016 election, Since he was sworn-in in February 2017, he had served the people with devotion.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRotimi has played his role well and left us untimely. We will never see his likes again. Let me tell the people of Ondo State that I am grieving with you. We will honour Rotimi\u2019s memory and make sure his legacy of service is never forgotten.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn my grief and sadness, I have telephoned his wife, Betty, and Acting Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa to commiserate with them and urge them to take heart over this national tragedy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGovernor Akeredolu was not just a friend, ally and associate, he was a brother and soulmate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHis death is a blow to our governing APC and the progressive family as we are diminished by it.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI hope that his successor Aiyedatiwa will hold steadfast to the vision of governance left by this towering political leader.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Says Akeredolu was a towering figure, through the instrumentality of the law Condoles with family, Ondo people\u00a0 President Bola Tinubu has described late Governor of Ondo State, Rotimi Akeredolu, as a man who moved the country towards equity, fairness and justice in his strident advocacy against every form of injustice.
