Health Challenges and Treatment
Governor Akeredolu’s health had been severely impacted by prostate cancer and leukemia, leading to a significant period of incapacitation.
Despite efforts to seek adequate medical attention abroad and through State House physicians, his condition deteriorated.
Controversies and Political Turmoil
The governor’s prolonged absence and attempts to oversee state affairs remotely from Ibadan, instead of the capital Akure, sparked public outrage and demands for his resignation due to his inability to fulfill gubernatorial duties.
Presidential Intervention and Transition of Authority
President Bola Tinubu’s intervention led to instructions for the transfer of power to the deputy governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa.
Akeredolu’s temporary leave of absence and Aiyedatiwa assuming the role of acting governor brought stability to Ondo State, particularly after the political impasse.
