The wife of the Ondo State Governor, Mrs. Betty Akeredolu has announced the suspension of activities lined up for her forthcoming 70th birthday celebration.
The postponement was believed to be a reaction to criticisms the birthday celebration had received.
In a Twitter post on Sunday, Mrs. Akeredolu said the suspension was as a result of circumstances beyond her control.
The tweet reads, “Hello Family and Friends. This is to inform you that all activities lined up to mark my 70th birthday are hereby suspended till further notice due to unforeseen circumstances beyond my control. Sorry for any inconvenience caused by this development.
“Nevertheless, be assured that I will be celebrated in style upon my return. Thank you for your understanding. I remain Arabinrin a.k.a Ada Owere I.”
In another Twitter post accompanied by a photo of her birthday flyer, she said that as long as there is life, ‘Owambe’ (party) can come at any time.
Her husband, Rotimi Akeredolu has been on medical vacation since June 7, 2023.
