Betty Anyanwu-Akeredolu, the widow of the late Ondo State Governor, expressed her disdain towards her late husband’s niece, Funke Akeredolu Aruna, accusing her of shamelessness for endorsing the incumbent governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, in the upcoming November gubernatorial election in the state.

Aiyedatiwa, who previously served as Akeredolu’s deputy, assumed office on 27th December following the demise of his predecessor. Prior to Akeredolu’s passing, there were internal conflicts that strained his relationship with Aiyedatiwa, allegedly stemming from the former deputy governor’s perceived disloyalty, resulting in the dissolution of Aiyedatiwa’s aides. Moreover, with the governor’s support, the State Assembly attempted to impeach Aiyedatiwa, although the specifics of their discord remained ambiguous until Akeredolu’s demise.

This public denouncement has sparked outrage on social media, with many asserting that Betty should be grieving her husband’s loss rather than engaging in conflict. Others urged her to maintain composure regarding election-related matters.
