Admist the economic hardship brought upon the people due to the lockdown occasioned by the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic and the dwindling financial prospect of country due to the drop in the price of crude oil the Ondo state Governor Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu has allegedly acquired three pieces of wonders on wheels for his personal use.

The three vehicles were purchased at a total sum of 477 million Naira only. A Benz G class which costs 187 million and two Lexus trucks which cost 145 million Naira each.

This moves which is perceived ill-timed and insensitive is by many people in the state has futher worsened the alredy tensed up atmosphere with the state chapter of the party.

A stalwart of the APC who spoke to us on the condition of anonymity said " This governor has futher revealed his true colour to all of us.He has proven to be a man who is grossly insensitive to the plight of the people who voted for him and the totality of the people he governs"

"At a time when most of our people are crying of hunger our leader has chosen to ride new cars on our empty stomach" he said

Another person, a market woman Mrs Apeke ojo who spoke in Yoruba to our reporter about the latest event said" E ba wa so fún Aketi wipe ati gbọ o, eti oba nile eti oba loko eyan lo n jẹ bẹẹ o....ebi n pawa wọn n gun jiipu. Oju a tunra ri o( tell the governor we have heard about his new action, nothing is hidden,we are hungry but he is riding Jeep... soon we shall meet again).

Recently the governor has attracted wide spread criticism for including the name of his son Babajide Akeredolu In the list of the committee put in charge of the COVID-19 palliative finances.
