I Paid Hon Agboola Ajayi N13M Monthly As Deputy Governor – Akeredolu

Candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC) in the governorship election in Ondo State, Governor Rotimi Akeredolu has come out to speak about his estranged deputy, Hon Agboola Ajayi.

Gov. Rotimi recently revealed that it is very sad to see Hon Agboola Ajayi eventually betray him despite being the highest-paid deputy governor in the country.

According to him, he made Agboola Ajayi very comfortable in office while ignoring several warnings from different quarters who hinted him that his deputy was not one to trust.

He added that it is shameful to see how Hon Agboola Ajayi refused to wait for his time even after receiving N13 million monthly, an amount his predecessors did not collect.

His words, “l ensured that Ajayi was well paid in order to make him comfortable in office despite all warnings from different quarters that he should not entrust Ajayi with power”.

“Agboola (Ajayi) does not want to wait for his time. I made him comfortable, I asked him to represent me in so many places but some people were warning me, I said they should leave him alone.”

“No deputy governor has collected what he was collecting in the history of the state. I gave him N13million monthly, his predecessors did not collect as much as that.”

“No deputy governor collects as much as that in Nigeria. I gave him enough room to operate yet he betrayed me .”

On him and Mimiko, “There are things that create envy in a person mind. I believe Mimiko is jealous of me and does not want anyone to equal his achievements. I will equal and surpass him”
