Ondo State Governor, Mr Rotimi Akeredolu, has insisted that his Chief of Protocol, Tosin Ogunbodede, died in an accident during his visit to one of his uncles in Ibadan, Oyo state.

This was coming as the offices of the Governor  and his enstranged Deputy  engaged in brickbats over the death of the aide.

A statement by Allen Sowore, a Media Aide to Mr Agboola Ajayi, the outgoing Deputy  to Governor Akeredolu,  had alleged that the accident that killed the CoP happened while on official duty to Ibadan.

In a counter statement on Thursday, the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Segun Ajiboye, berated the Deputy  Governor  for crying more than the bereaved.

According to Ajiboye, Allen Sowore,  the Deputy  Governor’s aide, has  found himself on the ego trip of a self deluding master.

“It is no longer strange to see Allen Sowore jump  onto the opinion box to raise spurious issues especially, as long as Governor Akeredolu is involved.

“For emphasis, the statement issued by the Honourable Commissioner for Information and Orientation was explicit and clear enough. Only those in the ilk of Allen and his leaders would  warp the statement to suit their purposes and motive that are unhidden.

“Clearly, it does appear the statement halted the trajectory of their narrative as soon as the accident that led to the death of the CoP was reported.

“Does anyone, if at all their narrative made sense, need to travel from Akure to Ibadan just to brief his Principal on the activities for the New Year?

“The fact of their failed mission to corner governance through diabolic means has, indeed, diminished if not eroded the most simple possibility of such ‘briefings’ with the help of technology.

“If higher officers such as the Secretary to Government, Chief of Staff, Head of Service and even Cabinet members communicate with the Governor through telephone conversations and mails, commonsense was most unkind not to have interceded on behalf of Allen and his masters who are still in pain over their ignoble past and unholy paths.”
