President Bola Tinubu will intervene into the quarrel between Ondo Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu and Deputy Lucky Aiyedatiwa.
Currently, the Ondo Assembly has been divided with 11 lawmakers now in support of Aiyedatiwa.
Sources collaborated the claim that the 11 lawmakers were reached out to by some forces outside Ondo State.
From findings, the Ondo lawmakers scheduled meeting for Friday was said to have been pushed by the 11 lawmakers.
It was also learnt that President Tinubu has invited members of the Ondo Assembly to Abuja on Friday.
Prominent elders and traditional rulers in the week already appealed to President Tinubu to intervene in the political crisis to avert looming anarchy.
The sitting was part of the plans conceived in Abuja with the 11 lawmakers to declare Governor Akeredolu incapacitated and declare Aiyedatiwa Governor.
Speaker Oladiji Olamide, who confirmed the meeting with President Tinubu, said the outcome of the meeting would determine the next line of action.
Oladiji said the scheduled Friday’s plenary was to declare Aiyedatiwa as Acting Governor and not to declare Akeredolu as incapacitated.
He said the meeting with President Tinubu would hold on Friday afternoon.
“Our sitting was to declare Aiyedatiwa as Acting Governor. The Governor is still alive,” he said.
