Earlier in a condolence message issued by his Special Assistant on Media and Digital Communications, John Paul Akinduro, Mimiko described the death of Akeredolu as a big loss to the people of Ondo State, the community of Owo and the nation at large.
“Beyond the rhetorics of politics, Aketi was a patriot who did only what he believed in and was never shy of expressing his personal beliefs, no matter how controversial.
“From our days as unionists in the then University of Ife, now Obafemi Awolowo University, Ile-Ife, Aketi was, and remained a dogged fighter for causes he believed in, and a jolly good personality.
