‘Bloody serpent’, Betty Akeredolu attacks husband’s niece over political choice
Widow of deceased Governor of Ondo State, Rotimi Akeredolu, Chief Betty Anyanwu-Akeredolu, has blasted her husband’s niece, Funke Akeredolu-Aruna, for backing Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa ahead of the state’s governorship election in November.
Aiyedatiwa, formerly Ondo deputy governor, was sworn in as governor on December 27, 2023, following Akeredolu’s death.
Aiyedatiwa faces stiff opposition to secure the governorship ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the party prepares for its primary in April.
Wife and supporters of the late governor have accused Aiyedatiwa of betraying his former boss.
In a post on Instagram on Monday, Mrs Anyanwu-Akeredolu described Akeredolu-Aruna as a ‘bloody serpent’.

“Behold the face of Aketi’s niece, Funke Akeredolu Aruna, the former deputy chief protocol to Aketi, shamelessly parades as ‘I am lucky’ Bloody serpent! Time will tell if she is truly lucky!” She wrote.
At her husband’s funeral service which was held on February 23 at St. Andrew’s Cathedral Anglican Church, Imola, Owo, Anyanwu-Akeredolu said her husband was termed a weakling because he loved his Igbo wife so much despite being Yoruba.
She said, “Darlin,….It’s me, your adorable Betty. You just left me just like that! It hurts. Badly it hurts. Now alone to face all manners of mockery from the so-called friends and adversaries alike.
“Not a few lashed out that you were a weakling because you loved me. A beg o! Can an Amotekun generalsimo be a weakling? Mbanuu! It doesn’t add up nau. Haba By the way, do they know what love is? I don’t think so.
“In their homes while growing up they saw their mothers trampled upon as doormats. Beaten up like punchbags.
“They copied the template and treated their wives as pieces of furniture that can be easily discarded as trash.”
