Ondo State’s Deputy Governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa  on Wednesday assumed office as acting governor shortly after his return to Akure, the state capital and his supporters have been celebrating.

He was received by a former Secretary to the State Government, Ifedayo Abegunde and his supporters.

Aiyedatiwa was confirmed by the state House of Assembly as acting governor following a letter in which Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu notified the members that he was proceeding on another round of medical leave.

Speaker Olamide Oladiji said the governor’s action was in line with Section 190 of the 1999 Constitution   (as amended).

Akeredolu told the Assembly that Aiyedatiwa would assume the responsibilities of governor in an acting capacity until there was a written declaration to the contrary.

He said the leave would commence on Wednesday.

Supporters of Aiyedatiwa took to social media to celebrate the development.
