The former secretary to the Ondo State government, Ifeadayo Abegunde, has said Governor Rotimi Akeredolu is the worst governor in the history of the state.
Abegunde who resigned on Monday said in a radio interview after his resignation, alleged that he suffered under Akeredolu.
Tayo Oluwatuyi, who was commissioner for natural resources has since been named secretary to the government.
Abegunde said the governor lied against him when he said he had been giving his office N5 million monthly.
He alleged that the governor starved his office of funds and he had told Ekiti State governor Kayode Fayemi, he would spit on the governorās face.
He said, āI suffered in his administration because he didnāt release any fund for my office. He has been telling lies that he was giving me N5m every month even when he knew he didnāt give me such money.
āWhere on earth did the governor give me such funds? Recently, I reported him to Governor Fayemi of Ekiti State and he promised to invite both of us to Abuja for settlement. I remember that I told Fayemi that I was going to spit on the face of Akeredolu if he repeated the lie that he was giving me N5 million monthly if we meet face to face, and I would then return to Akure to resign and as well inform the public of his looting sprees.
āAkeredolu has turned Mimiko to a saint with his own abysmal performance. We now see that Mimiko did well as governor because he gave his people enough funds to operate. I had worked with three governors, and I can say that in the history of Ondo State, Akeredolu is the worst governor.ā
He said the governor would loseĀ the October 10 election as many of his pillars had left him.
