The All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun, has suspended Rauf Aregbesola, a former governor of the state, over alleged anti-party activities.

The party accused the former minister of interior of “creating splinter groups in the APC” and making “public outbursts” against President Bola Tinubu, Bisi Akande, a former governor of Osun, and Gboyega Oyetola, minister of marine and blue economy.

The state working committee of the Osun APC said it found merit in the allegations levelled against the former minister by the executives of the party in Ilesa East LGA where he hails from.

In a letter to the national working committee (NWC) of the party, Tajudeen Lawal and Alao Kamoru, chair and secretary of the APC in Osun, said Aregbesola breached article 21 (2) of the party’s constitution.

“Following complaints of anti-party activities levelled against Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola by the llesa East Local Government executive committee, the State Executive Committee (SEC), after reviewing the allegations and in accordance with the powers vested in it by article 21(3) (vi) (c) of the party’s constitution, hereby suspends Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola from the party pending the outcome of an investigation into the allegations by a disciplinary committee,” PUNCH quoted the letter as saying.

“The State Executive Commíttee has constituted a disciplinary committee to investigate and provide Ogbeni Aregbesola with the opportunity to respond to the allegations of activities deemed to be in violation of Article 21 (2) of the party’s constitution, particularly relating to anti-party activities that undermine the collective interests of the APC.”

They said the disciplinary committee would give Aregbesola a chance to defend himself.


RIFT BETWEEN TINUBU AND AREGBESOLA

Tinubu and Aregbesola fell out in 2020 when the former minister revamped the Mandate Group — a core of Tinubu’s loyalists — and usurped the closely-knitted caucus for individuals he could trust.

The former Osun governor relaunched the group without Tinubu’s approval and named Abdullahi Enilolobo, his protege, as the new leader.

In 2022, there was an attempt by close associates and friends to reconcile both men in the build-up to the 2023 general election – but that did not yield any tangible result as they still do not see eye to eye.

I thought they've settled their differences. This Aregbe too na mad guy

The wicked Ex Governor of Osun State that the Osun State Civil Servant will never pray to have his replica.

The worst Interior Minister Nigeria have ever produced. He didn't achieve anything as Minister beyond announcing public holidays.

Law of power

Don't outshine your Master, they will not hear.

Learn to obey the rule of nature or else, sorry is your name.

Personally, I don't like betrayers.

If I eat and drink from your table or you have helped me one way or the other before, not that we can not have issues or we will always be on the same page, but I will never attack you or embarrass you, talk less of disgracing you publicly. Instead I walk away

Two corrupt individuals. If they sacked him because of Tinubu then Osun APC is just a whipping tool in the hands of Tinubu and their end is near. Aregbesola is a corrupt and very dangerous man and from the look of things, the man is only interested in self gain rather than what will bring development to the state. He has been in romance with opposition for long and he is like Wike that want recognition by all means.

Aregbe bleeped up big time. Osinbajo was not on the same page as Tinubu during the build up to 2023 presidential election but despite people trying to gaslight him to 'MISYARN' he managed to maintain silence. But Aregbe dared to say Tinubu peed in his pants, the man who God used to make you politically, that's highly disrespectful. Even Obi and Atiku would never go that far, people ing Aregbe are just so petty. If Tinubu is as vindictive as Obasanjo, Aregbe would have seen hell since.

Emperor Tinubu

Funny enough one thing remain Rauf is a grass root politician and difficult not to be notice in osun political landscape

.

Just decamp to another party Aregbe

This is how Dictatorship starts

I pray no matter how powerful I become may I never get to a level of hating criticism

It's never ok to mock your benefactor. He's reaping the consequences of lack of restraint.

Pandora people were clapping for him the other day!

Aregbesola Na charm politician with brain.

This APC

Aregbe bit more than he could chew with this tinibu matter.
He forgot that he was what he was because of his mentors input. Just first opportunity to be appointed minister he teamed up with his mentors enemies. Now he's suffering in isolation.
A lot of people will learn from him

This should be the way of MEN

People have the right to air their view .. Jagaban is not complaining , stop crying more than the bereaved ... Till tomorrow Baba Sakira would forever be grateful to Jagaban and their friendship will always dey Kampe...

Good decisions from Osun State Apc. Aregbesola isn’t a determinant for osun state politics

An adult is allowed to have an opinion

Well you Yorubas are used to having leaders or kings who are seen n reverend like gods

In Igboland even God can be judged and examined not to talk of mere mortals, I when my king gave a law we should no longer shot knockout

Not only Did we shot bangers, we the kids surrounded his fence and started throwing it inside his compound... He apologized to we kids the next Sunday in church

Who do you think you are to think you won't get insulted by others? I don't get it... This is why I said Nigeria should never be one... We don't have similar value systems... It's too far apart

can't you just pretend to be reasonable?
If I ask you what exactly did Tinubu do to Aregbe that warrant those insults, I hope you will be able to provide answer. So in igbo land, you tell your elders that they pee on themselves. Like I really don't understand your point. Even if you have personal issues with Tinubu, that should not block your sense of reasoning

Their eyes go soon clear by 2027

You go cry blood when Tinubu finishes his two and hands over to Shettima/Wike. Shebi your fake Pastors that prophesized that Tinubu will not win have given you another prophecy from the beer parlour.
