A dramatic scene unfolded yesterday at the Ibadan private residence of the late Ondo State Governor, Rotimi Akeredolu.
The presence of journalists that converged to cover the condolence visit of the chairman of the Nigerian Governors’ Forum, Governor Abdulrahman Abdulrazaq and his Oyo State counterpart, Seyi Makinde to the deceased residence sparked off resistance.
The presence of journalists generated a negative reaction from one of the daughters of the deceased, named Ololade Akeredolu, who ordered all the journalists to leave the residence, on the ground that it was a private residence and not a Government House.
The duo arrived the Jericho residence of the late governor at about 5:30 pm.
Upon arrival, the two governors went straight into the private residence where the wife, Betty and some immediate family members were mourning.
However, swift intervention of some colleagues calmed the frayed nerves as the reporters who had laid siege to the entrance gates of the residence to monitor situation felt angry at the negative reaction.
Apparently sensing what had happened, the two governors after the visit walked out to the street where the journalists were waiting to interview the visitors.
Speaking, the Kwara State governor lauded the deceased governor for his commitment and impact on humanity.
Abdulrahman who described Akeredolu’s death as a great loss to the nation, recounted that the late Aketi rose to the peak of his career and politics and impacted greatly on humanity in developmental politics
