Ondo Governorship Aspirants Are Behind Blackmail Against Me – Governor Aiyedatiwa

By Ayodele Oni

Ondo State Governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, has said the days of those politicians behind his continued blackmail are numbered as they will soon be exposed.

The Chief Press Secretary to the governor,  Ebenezer Adeniyan, who spoke while featuring on a Programme on Fresh FM Akure, said, “Mr governor has begged politicians to just play by the rules in a manner that would not threaten the peace and tranquility in the state.

“Some of them, those that want to contest for the governorship Election, have been following the rules, talking to party leaders and all that and we have also seen two or three aspirants that have not gone anywhere to talk to anybody, but the only meeting they hold is with their data boys and tell them to go and be writing stories on social media as if that is where the ticket of the party would be picked.

“We will continue to expose them and when the time is right, we would mention their names. We know them and if we do not know them, would not say that they held meetings a day before yesterday at a very popular hotel in this Akure, in ijapo for that matter. So we know them and know what they are doing, we know their names.

“Mr governor is two weeks old in office. They should allow him focus on what he is doing, even though he is not disturbed.

“All these blackmails and stories planted here and there would not give anybody the ticket of the party. Ticket of the party would be either by delegates or members of the party.

“They blackmailed him while he was the deputy governor, he defeated them, now he is the governor with the help of God and the people who saw that the battle against him was unnecessary and affecting the development of Ondo state and they stood by him.”
