Agboola had also asked the governor to hand over the affairs of the state to him after the Governor announced that he tested positive for Coronavirus.

However, the governor on Monday, June 6 announced again that he had recovered from the virus after testing negative.

You will recall that the state Governor, Oluwarotimi Akeredolu also announced the appointment of a new Secretary to the state Government a few hours after the former SSG, Hon. Ifedayo Abegunde tendered his letter of resignation.
