Late Governor of Ondo State, Rotimi Akeredolu’s niece, Funke Akeredolu Aruna has lambasted the late governor’s wife, Betty Anyanwu-Akeredolu for attacking her for supporting the sitting governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa.

Funke Akeredolu said: “The widow of the late governor is disappointed that I’m not in their camp against the present governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa.”

“I happened to be one of the assistant converner of Orimisan Lucky Aiyedatiwa women in Ondo Sate, a supporting group for his reelection.”

“It was during the programme that they took my picture. It is just politics and I want to believe that it is the opposition that took that picture and started sending it around to blackmail me.”

“I think that’s where the late governor’s wife now got the picture and you know she was disappointed that I’m not in their camp.”

“Everybody knows I’m in lucky’s camp. I have always be there when the whole shenanigans started.”

“What happened between late governor and Aiyedatiwa is just pure politics. Even on the issue of impeachment.”

“Mummy that is fighting me and attacking me now, has her own reason because she is not supporting this present governor.”

“At least from lucky’s side, he gave my uncle a befitting burial which I think he did quite well.”

For those who don’t know, trouble started after the late governor’s wife took to her Instagram page to share a photo of Funke Akeredolu wearing a cap with an inscription – “I am lucky” and wrote:

“Behold the face of Aketi’s niece, Funke Akeredolu Aruna, the former deputy chief protocol to Aketi, shamelessly parades as ‘I am lucky’ Bloody serpent! Time will tell if she is truly lucky!”
