The Acting Governor of Ondo State, Mr. Lucky Aiyedatiwa, has been sworn in as the governor of the State.
The swearing-in ceremony was held at the Cocoa Conference Hall in the governor’s office and was administered by the chief judge, Justice Olusegun Odusola at 5:18 pm.
“It is with a heavy heart that I accept this honorous responsibility of taking over the reins of governance and affairs of our state after the unfortunate loss and passing of our beloved governor and leader and my dear principal Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Odunayo Akeredolu,” Aiyedatiwa said in his opening remarks as the number one citizen of the state.
Present to witness the swearing-in are other judges and top government officials, including the secretary to the state government and members of the state cabinet, the state All Progressives Congress (APC) chairman and members of the state house of assembly.
His inauguration followed the death of Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu earlier on Wednesday.
