The governor of Ondo State, Rotimi Akeredolu, has died at the age of 67 after a long illness.

A family source reported on Wednesday that the governor passed away in Lagos while undergoing treatment as he reportedly was not able to be flown abroad for treatment.

It was reported that Akeredolu had struggled with Leukemia for months before his death.

The ill governor had only just returned to Nigeria from a three-month medical leave in Germany and proceeded to govern Ondo State from his home in Ibadan.

After a three-month medical leave in Germany, the ill governor returned to Nigeria in September.

He however took another medical leave in December 2023 and subsequently transferred control of Ondo State to his deputy, Lucky Aiyedatiwa, who has been filling in as Acting Governor.

Before his passing, Akeredolu was a second term governor of Ondo State and was also a Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) and a past president of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA).
