 And the understate governor, Rotimi Akeridolu, has condemned Garba Sheo over his comments on the resolutions of the 17 southern governors made at a meeting in Asaba Delta State. In a statement from the presidency, Sheo condemned the resolutions of the 17 southern governors, but Akeridolu described him as an instigator, adding that the presidential media aide was not speaking for President Buhari on the ban on open grazing. He also warned Sheo and his cohorts to desist from hurling insults and elected representatives of the people. Akeridolu added that Sheo lacks the authority to make policy statements for the federal government unless directed expressly.
