He informed us that he must be declared acting governor on Tuesday.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen we reminded him that it wasn\u2019t part of the resolutions reached at the meeting with the President, he said the President can\u2019t tell us how to run Ondo State.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>When contacted over the development, the Speaker of the House of Assembly, Olamide Oladiji, insisted that the lawmakers are in line with the outcome of the meeting with President Tinubu.<\/p>\n<p>According to Oladiji, any decision not in tandem with the resolution reached with President Tinubu should be disregarded.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/nigeria\">Nigeria<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Nigeria.
