The All Progressive Congress ,APC, Osun chapter has said it was surprised that despite all the petitions wrote over immediate past minister of Interior, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola’s anti-party activities the national leadership of the party was yet to decide on it.
This was contained in the Osun APC chairman’s statement, Sooko Tajudeen Lawal, issued by the party’s Director of Media and Information, Chief Kola Olabisi.
Lawal who was responding to claims of Aregbesola that Minister of Marine and Blue Economy, Adegboyega Oyetola during his time as governor of Osun that an agreement was reached on August 26th, 2021 for his faction to be considered in forming the government by giving it one-third of the appointments in the second term of Oyetola’s administration said Aregbesola was making a reference to the agreement he reached with the Adeleke dynasty.
“By his latest false claims, Aregbesola is only seeking political relevance but we will not be distracted by his antics. We call on every loyal and committed member of the APC in Osun to be wary of him. He meant no good for the party,” Lawal said.
It was gathered that prominent members of Osun APC said to be loyalists of Aregbesola have been suspended from the party.
Lawal who confirmed that series of petitions have been submitted to the national party leadership in Abuja to deal with Aregbesola said “In fact, we are surprised that the National leadership of the party in Abuja has not acted on all the petitions we wrote to catalogue Aregbesola’s anti-party activities,”
“By his latest false claims, Aregbesola is only seeking political relevance but we will not be distracted by his antics. We call on every loyal and committed member of the APC in Osun to be wary of him. He meant no good for the party,” Lawal added.
