My late husband would have been alive if he had listened to me – Betty Akeredolu
Betty Anyanwu-Akeredolu, wife of former Ondo State Governor Rotimi Akeredolu (SAN), has stated that her late husband might still be alive if he had listened to her.
Akeredolu passed away on December 27, 2023, due to complications from prostate cancer.
In an interview with Star News publisher Olumide Akinrinlola on Thursday, February 13, Mrs. Akeredolu revealed that her husband chose to follow the advice of spiritualists and pastors instead of heeding her counsel.
“What came out of their mountain climbing, blessed handkerchiefs, water, olive oil, etc., from the GOs and all the noisy prayers like people possessed by demons? If Aketi had listened to me, I wouldn’t be a widow.”
“A pastor is not a doctor; he understands nothing about cancer. He can only pray, and prayers don’t cure cancer. Consult a doctor—not just any doctor, but a doctor who specialises in cancer cases,” she said.
