You’ve done well and I am very sure history will judge well and its time for Aketi to contribute his own quota too” We will always need your assistance and we believe you won’t refuse to give us so that the state can move forward. You’re not helping Aketi with these assistance but helping to move Ondo state forward. Political leaders across the two political parties were present at the handing over ceremony.
