Former Osun state governor, Rauf Aregbesola has reacted to the defeat of his successor, Oyetola
Aregbesola who is also the Minister of Interior, who was absent from the election, had kept mute on development in Osun State after his comments against the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress and his political boss, Bola Tinubu, in February 2022.
The victory came for Adeleke nearly four years after failing by a small margin in his bid to govern Osun State.
Aregbesola said, “‘This matter is by the decree of the watchers, and the demand by the word of the holy ones: to the intent that the living may know that the most High ruleth in the kingdom of men, and giveth it to whomsoever he will, and setteth up over it the basest of men.’ – (Daniel 4:17),” the minister posted.
Aregbesola earlier said no more of the politics of godfatherism and enthronement by some leaders who equated themselves to the status of a god.
The minister had said he trusted Tinubu, but the ex-governor of Lagos State repaid him with betrayal.
Aregbesola, who was the Governor of Osun State from 2010 to 2018, accused Tinubu and ex-governor of Osun State, Bisi Akande, of forcing the current governor of the state, Gboyega Oyetola, on the people against popular will.
