Supporters of Ondo state Deputy Governor, Honourable Lucky Orimisan Aiyedatiwa are planning to take to the street and protest to have their voice heard over ongoing political issues in the state that has kept their political leader haunted by impeachment proceedings at the state House of Assembly.
Plans for the protest were announced on various social media platforms over the weekend by loyalists of the deputy governor. They revealed that the move became necessary to rescue the state from political gladiators holding it to ransom.
A former member of the House of Representatives, Mr. Kokade Akinjo, who is leading the push for a protest against Akeredolu, said: “All the progressives must be ready to join a protest in Akure devoid of party colouration. A huge protest will send a message to all these democratic hawks holding the Constitution to ransom.
“Ondo State is bleeding, and everything is happening to the state now. Corruption is at its peak, and we don’t know who is in the saddle.
“Let us go there. I am ready to lead. Eight years of legislative experience is not a joke. Dino said, You die once. I am tired of the rubbish happening in Ondo State.”
Meanwhile, Supporters of Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Odunayo Akeredolu responded by vowing to stage a counter-protest in the state to show support for Governor.
The protests are expected to take place on the state this week as both camps continue to fire salvos and expressing their opinions over the state of politics and governance in the Sunshine State.
