Ondo State Council of Obas yesterday gathered to pray for the quick recovery of Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu.
The Nation reports that the first prayer session of the Christians was led by the Olujigba of Ijigba, Oba Luyi Rotimi.
Oba Rotimi asked God to grant the governor a quick recovery so that he can continue the good work he is doing.
The royal father said God has proven he could heal the sick irrespective of the cause and kind of illness.
Prayer in the African traditional way was offered by Abodi of Ikale, Oba G.B Faduyile. He said Governor Akeredolu was a pride to the state and the country at large.
Deji Akure Kingdom, Oba Aladetoyinbo Aladelusi, described Governor Akeredolu as ‘a fearless leader’ who had done so much for the state in terms of security and infrastructure.
Oba Aladetoyinbo said what they could do, at critical times like this, is to pray for him to recover urgently.
He also cautioned against ‘unnecessary uproars’ by persons who want to use the governor’s absence to settle political issues.
He warned political actors not to plunge the state into any unnecessary and avoidable upheaval.
“Rather than cause unnecessary tension, the politicians should come together and pray for the governor and the state to seek the good of the land,” he added.
