Wife of Ondo State governor Betty Anyanwu-Akeredolu on Friday shared a picture with her husband Governor Rotimi Akeredolu in a hospital in Germany to celebrate his 67th birthday.
“Aketi dey kampe! . Victory for us!” she wrote, silencing those fuelling rumour of his death.
The picture is the first showing the governor in the true state of his health. Akeredolu has been out of Nigeria since June to treat an undisclosed ailment. His medical leave has been extended indefinitely by state lawmakers.
Akeredolu’s photo has generated tons of reactions on social media.
In a viral video, the lawmaker representing Owo State Constituency Emmanuel Ogumolasuyi is seen wishing Akeredolu happy birthday and speedy recovery.
Also celebrating his birthday, the governor shared a picture captioned, “Which of the favours of the Lord can I deny? Chapter 67 To God be the Laud, Honour and Glory!!!”
Ondo Speaker Oladiji Adesanmi, in a statement, said the courageous and visionary leadership style of Akeredolu has transformed the state and the people.
