The funeral arrangements for the late former Governor of Ondo State, Rotimi Akeredolu, will kick off today with a winning soul crusade at the MKO Abiola Democracy Park in Akure, the state capital.
A statement by the late governor’s former Chief Press Secretary, Richard Olatunde, said that the event will begin at 5 p.m.
Akeredolu died in his sleep at a hospital in Germany, where he was undergoing treatment for prostate cancer, on December 26, 2023.
Olatunde said in the statement, “This profound loss has left us devastated and filled with sorrow. However, we find solace in the remarkable work and enduring legacy he left behind.
“During his tenure as the Governor of Ondo State from February 24, 2017, until December 26, 2023, Arakunrin Akeredolu prioritised the welfare of the people and delivered a dividend of good governance with tangible benefits.
“In the face of protracted insecurity that plagued the Southwest, with the menace of killer herdsmen terrorising and abducting innocent citizens, the late Akeredolu fearlessly stood at the forefront, defended the rights of the people with unflinching courage and resilience.
“His commitment to the collective well-being of the people has left an indelible mark on the state.
“As we bid farewell, we acknowledge that our parting is not one of finality. Instead, we commit ourselves to preserving his memory and upholding the noble deeds he accomplished throughout his life.
Olatunde added, “Even in death, his influence remains steadfast, for he shall forever be our guiding light and inspirational leader.
