In the ongoing saga of political drama, Betty Akeredolu-Anyanwu isn’t mincing words, even posthumously. Despite the late Governor Rotimi Akeredolu’s recent burial, Betty’s not cooling down just yet.
In a scathing Instagram post, she took aim at Akeredolu’s niece, Funke Akeredolu-Aruna, accusing her of throwing support behind Lucky Aiyedatiwa’s gubernatorial aspirations. Betty didn’t hold back, calling out Funke for her allegiance to Aiyedatiwa, who’s gunning for the APC ticket in the forthcoming Ondo State governorship race.
With a touch of sarcasm, Betty unveiled Funke’s photo on social media, dubbing her “I’M LUCKY” – a move dripping with irony given the political chess game at play. Betty’s parting shot? A cryptic prediction: “Time will tell if she is truly lucky!”
But this isn’t just a squabble over family ties and political alliances. Oh no, it’s a full-blown soap opera. Funke, once a key player as the former deputy chief of protocol in the state, found herself in Betty’s crosshairs after flaunting her support for Aiyedatiwa on social media.
While some may raise eyebrows at Betty’s fiery rhetoric, this feud is merely the latest chapter in the ongoing showdown between Akeredolu’s camp and Team Aiyedatiwa. And if you thought the plot couldn’t thicken any further, think again.
Before Governor Akeredolu’s untimely passing in December, tensions simmered between Betty and Aiyedatiwa over allegations of disloyalty. With whispers of financial misconduct swirling, there were even rumblings of impeachment against Aiyedatiwa during his tenure as Ondo State’s deputy governor.
Yet, in a twist worthy of the finest telenovela, Aiyedatiwa ultimately ascended to the governor’s throne following Akeredolu’s demise. But amidst the political maneuvering and familial feuds, one can’t help but wonder: what other secrets lie buried beneath Ondo State’s political landscape? The plot thickens, indeed.
