Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa of Ondo State has dismissed rumors circulating in some quarters about the authenticity of his certificates, affirming that they are genuine and authentic.
Aiyedatiwa made this known on Friday at the national secretariat of the party in Abuja after being cleared by the Screening Committee to contest the primary election.
He addressed the issue of his certificates, stating, “Questions were asked and answered, and at the end of the day, I have been cleared that there are no issues.
Especially the issue that has to do with the certificate that a petition was written, today that has been put to rest. My certificates are genuine and authentic.”
Explaining the timeline of his education, he mentioned attending Ikosi High School, which was established in 1980 by the regime of Lateef Jakande.
He clarified that he was in Form ‘3’ in a private school when the government took over private schools, and he completed his WASSCE in 1982.
Responding to those attempting to discredit him, Aiyedatiwa advised them to focus on the work ahead, stating, “I should just advise them to repent and try to go to the field and work.
If they are interested in the seat and the seat is not vacant, that is why they’re trying to do all that they are doing.”
The governor concluded by reiterating that there is no vacancy in the Ondo State government house.
