The All Progressives Congress
(APC) has suspended Rotimi Akeredolu, Governor of Ondo State, for purportedly
engaging in anti-party activities.
A member of the ruling party’s
National Working Committee (NWC) confirmed that Governor Akeredolu has been
suspended and explained that the governor was suspended following a similar
decision by the party to suspend Ibukunle Amosun and Rochas Okorocha, governors
of Imo and Ogun states respectively, for allegedly participating in anti-party
activities.
According to reports, Governor
Akeredolu had failed to respond to the query issued to him by the party.
The
party was not oblivious to the silent complaints by party members over the
perceived injustice of the APC to suspend the Ondo governor, following the
parallel action taken against the Imo and Ogun governors.
According to a statement issued
by Lanre Issa-Onilu, APC National Publicity Secretary, the ruling party
described the Ondo governor’s actions “greatly affected the fortunes of its
candidates in the recently conducted presidential and National Assembly
elections in the state.”
