‘We’ve asked God to bring Tinubu’— Aregbesola

Former Governor of Osun State, Rauf Aregbesola has given acute attacks against his  political pal and leader, Ahmed Bola Tinubu, over who holds the mantle of power in the state. 

Aregbesola, who is as at now the current Minister of Interior, said this  in Ijebu Ijesa while addressing the All Progressives Congress, APC, faithfuls and stakeholders ahead of the party’s governorship primary.

Aregbesola exposed that the current Governor and his successor, Gboyega Oyetola, as the most “useless and corrupt governor in the history of the state.”

The minister decaled in no cunning words that Oyetola would be rejected to run for a second term in office the same way ex-Governor of Lagos State, Akinwunmi Ambode, was treated in 2019.

Although Aregbesola did not in particular mention Tinubu’s name, he launched some verbal attacks at the APC National Leader in relation to the political situation in Osun.

He claimed that Tinubu abused his leadership and in no long time assumed the god complex.

“We followed and served this leader with all our might. In fact, our loyalty to him had caused some people to start wondering if we were no longer Muslims,” he said.

“But we were with him and served him according to the admonition of our forefathers, who said when serving anyone, we should do so with sincerity and loyalty; that if you regard anyone as your principal, you must serve him wholeheartedly.

“Sadly, we didn’t know that while we wished him well, he didn’t think good of us.

“However, because we placed him higher than where he ordinarily should be, he started to think he is our god.

“Unfortunately, for him, we had sworn to God that whoever compares himself to him, we’d beg Him to bring down such a fellow.
