I can make my son Chief of Staff - Akeredolu

The Governor of Ondo State, Rotimi Akeredolu has said he can appoint his son, Babajide, as his Chief of Staff.

The governor who spoke at government house, Akure, during a dinner organised in commemoration of his third anniversary in the position, said his son worked harder than most members of the campaign.

“When somebody says Baba (Babajide) is this, I just laugh at them. If I wanted to make Baba my chief of staff, he can be; did you do more than him in the campaign? Ask yourself, how many of you did more than Baba in the campaign? How many?” he asked.

“The young boy was going everywhere and all of us saw him but we decided not to because he wouldn’t want it. My son is satisfied, that’s why. If he is not, I will put him somewhere, there is nothing anybody can do. I will put him there, there is nothing you can do. Is he not my son? Is he not from Ondo state? Has he not worked?”
