Betty Anyanwu-Akeredolu, the widow of late former governor of Ondo State, Arakunrin Rotimi Akeredolu (SAN), has criticised her husband’s niece, Funke Akeredolu-Aruna, for supporting the incumbent governor, Lucky Aiyedatiwa.
In a post on her Instagram page on Monday, Betty described Funke as shameless, adding that time will tell if she is “truly lucky.”
“Behold the face of Aketi’s niece, Funke Akeredolu Aruna, the former deputy chief protocol to Aketi, shamelessly parades as ‘I am lucky’ Bloody serpent! Time will tell if she is truly lucky!”
Aiyedatiwa was sworn in as governor of Ondo State on December 27, 2023, following the death of his former boss, Akeredolu, who died of prostate cancer in Germany at the age of 67.
The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has fixed April 16, 2024, for the governorship primary, while the main election will hold on November 16.
