IBUKUNOLUWA KING-OKUNEYE
Claims that Rauf Aregbesola, the Minister of Interior, and his successor, Osun State Governor Adegboyega Oyetola have resolved their conflict has been refuted by Seun Abosede, the Youth Leader of the Rasaq Salinsile-led faction of the Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Abosede said on Sunday in Osogbo that the picture circulated online, where Aregbesola and Oyetola were hugging, was an old picture.
He added that the Minister has not met with Oyetola recently to settle the APC crisis in the State.
“The people circulating the picture are same set of people who had crucified, badmouthed and lied against Aregbesola to achieve their selfish goal. They should bury their heads in shame for smearing the former governor’s image.
“While we are not opposed to genuine reconciliation of both Governor Oyetola and Aregbesola’s camps, the picture being circulated by the “data boys” is not only misleading but mischievous.
“The people behind the circulation of the picture should be humble and sincere enough to initiate a reconciliation move of they so desire. We considered the widespread circulation of the picture as tricky and an attempt to blackmail the minister.
“The general public should please disregard the fake news”, said Abosede.
