Ondo State Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu has denied rumors that he is contemplating another medical vacation in Germany.
In a statement issued by his Chief Press Secretary, Richard Olatunde, the Governor advised Ondo State residents and Nigerians in general to disregard the false and misleading accusations.
The fraudulent charges, according to Akeredolu, were spread by politicians with ulterior motivations.
The Governor, who recently returned to the country five weeks ago from medical vacation, expressed disappointment with the individuals behind the rumors, labeling them as “evil-minded politicians” who have been dissatisfied with his return to the state.
He emphasized that his administration has been functioning effectively without any disruptions, and he remains resolute in his commitment to serving the people of the State.
“The story making the rounds is baseless, unfounded, and only a figment of the imagination of evil-minded politicians.
“For us, we are committed to addressing the genuine concerns of the people of the State. This is why development is prioritised under the Akeredolu administration.
“Governance is not about showbiz, where the governor embarks on fashion parades at the market square to announce his presence in the State.
“We understand the importance of development as the major driver of a peaceful, thriving, and egalitarian society.
“Governor Akeredolu’s administration has consistently demonstrated its dedication to the State’s progress.
“Recently, he approved the recruitment of medical professionals and healthcare workers as a demonstration of our commitment to enhancing the State’s healthcare system.”
