Giving reasons for his assertion on the deceased governor's spiritual journey, Senator Jimoh Ibrahim stated that he judged from the late governor's good deeds and in his dealings with people. In the senator's words:  "It is normal for us to cry when we lose our loved ones, but Arakunrin Oluwarotimi Akeredolu ‘s death is not painful. Death is only painful when you are not sure of heaven. So, Aketi’s death is not painful because he’ll surely make heaven. Let us console ourselves by his dealings and relationship with people both the high and lowly in the country. As the governor of Ondo State his programmes were people -oriented and related with everyone. As Senior Advocate he fought for people’s rights pro bono and pressured all governments at the center to ensure Nigeria is governed on the platform of true federalism. No doubt, we will miss him a great deal for a long time to come.”
