He added that he was not pleased with how Akeredolu’s wife was captured on tape accusing the late governor’s special of giving him concoctions to manage his poor health.
The former aide said Akeredolu shouldn’t have allowed his wife dictate who he relate with.
“You may blame this woman for indiscretion. Marriage is a scam. I hate co-habitation. I respect my wife, but she cannot tell me not to relate with people.
“On his wife’s management, Aketi was a weakling.
“She was acting like she had more stake in Aketi’s family than anybody. What point was she proving? I knew Aketi was not sleeping with anybody.”
“No office as the office of the First Lady. Aketi shouldn’t have allowed it.”
