Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>The Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in Ondo State has given Governor Oluwarotimi Akeredolu a three-day ultimatum to either resume at the Governor\u2019s Office in Akure, or resign.<\/p>\n

The youth wing of the party issued the ultimatum on Monday at the party\u2019s secretariat in Akure, Ondo State capital, while protesting the continued absence of the governor.<\/p>\n

Earlier, a team of security operatives comprising men of the Police, Department of State Services, DSS, and National Security and Civil Defense Corps, NSCDC, had cordoned off the PDP secretariat to prevent the protest from holding.<\/p>\n

Akeredolu has not been seen in the state since his return from medical leave in Germany over four weeks ago.<\/p>\n

According to one of the PDP youth leaders, Tayo Oluyi, the state can no longer bear what he described as \u2018leadership vacuum\u2019.<\/p>\n

Oluyi said, \u201cWe are saying Mr Governor must resume back to duty. He can no longer govern us by proxy, we can no longer be hearing that he\u2019s one thing or the other when we\u2019ve not sighted him.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know the governor we have, if he\u2019s truly fit, we would have sighted him in the streets of Akure.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe youth wing of the party is giving Mr Governor the next 24 hours to address the people of Ondo State and we are giving him three days ultimatum to resume back to the state.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are giving him three days ultimatum to address us and if he fails, we as the opposition party will occupy the streets of Akure and we will continue to demand that he either resume or resign.\u201d<\/p>\n
