Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu, has announced the change of his running mate in the forthcoming Ondo State Governorship election. The Governor has picked Lucky Ayedatiwa as his deputy in his re-election bid.
Governor Akeredolu announced his choice of Ayedatiwa in a Twitter post on Wednesday, July 28, a week after he won the APC’s ticket to contest for a second term in office.
Lucky Ayedatiwa, 55, is a former representative of the state on the board of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC).
The governor started his first term with Agboola Ajayi as his deputy, but Ajayi dumped the APC in June after he expressed his desire to contest for the governor’s seat.
Even though attempts to impeach him have stalled, Ajayi lost his chance to contest in the election after Eyitayo Jegede beat him in the primary election of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) last week.
