Former Ondo State governor, late Rotimi Akeredolu’s wife, Betty Anyanwu-Akeredolu has made a shocking revelation.

She said: “If stopping drinking coke and other minerals, swallowing eba, pounded yam, amala and akpu would prolong my life knowing that starchy foods and sugar fuel the growth of cancer, so be it.”

“That was exactly what I did. I stopped drinking minerals, no ‘swallow’ and no bread since 2000!”

She made the revelation in a post on social media on Wednesday marking World Cancer Day.

For those who don’t know, Betty Akeredolu is the founder of the Breast Cancer Association of Nigeria (BRECAN).
