The Ondo State Governor, Mr. Lucky Aiyedatiwa, has picked a former Deputy Clerk of the National Assembly, Mr Olaide Adelami, as the Deputy Governor of the State.
This came a few hours after the Governor sacked all the commissioners and special advisers on Wednesday.
In a statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Mr. Ebenezer Adeniyan, the name of the new Deputy Governor has been submitted to the State House of Assembly for approval.
“His nomination will be announced by the House of Assembly later today,” the statement read.
Adelami retired as Deputy Clerk to the National Assembly in April 2018. He hails from Owo Local Government Area (LGA), the same LGA of late Governor Rotimi Akeredolu.
Adelami was APC governorship aspirant in 2020 but stepped down for the late Akeredolu
