The PDP South-west Publicity Secretary, Chief Sanya Atofarati, has alleged that the Ondo State Governor, Arakunrin Rotimi Akeredolu is currently in talk with the authorities of the Supreme Court to negotiate the allocation of the state for his favour in the yet-to-be decided Governorship judgement in Ondo state.
The allegation is contained in a statement by his Special Assistant, Mr. Ife Omoniyi who called on labour unions in the state to rise in defence of civil servants to prevent the menace purportedly concocted by the state Governor Rotimi Akeredolu, to negotiating their salaries with the forthcoming supreme court judgement which he believes would be in favour of his party, PDP.
In his words, Omoniyi said; “It has come to our notice that the Ondo State Governor, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu has been negotiating the forthcoming Supreme Court Judgement with the State allocations just for favouritism.
It is imperative to make this known to the general public and particularly the State Labour Union and its members that Governor Akeredolu has been on the move to negotiate their Salaries for his gains and interests by implementing this satanic means through the ongoing Half-Salary tactics in the state.
Recall that, during and after the appeal case judgement, there was a ploy to frustrate the appeal judgement. Even after the judgement, the appeal court reluctantly and refused to release the certified true copies of the judgement to our Party.
Despite that, It is so unfortunate that the Governor and the APC Party are trying every possible means to win at the forthcoming Supreme Court rulings through negotiations for personal and political interests and not minding the plight of the State Civil Servants and the present predicaments of the State.
We are calling on the masses and most especially the State Civil Servants to be aware and restrict this act of wickedness and oppression in the State.”
