Don’t join Aregbesola’s caucus, Osun APC chair warns members

Osun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress has urged its members not to relate with the newly formed Omoluabi Caucus, a group formed recently by the ex-governor, Rauf Aregbesola.

Aregbesola at the launch of the Omoluabi Caucus in Ilesa on Tuesday, described it as an association of like minds with progressive ideals.

But reacting to the launch in a statement on Wednesday, Osun APC chairman, Mr. Tajudeen Lawal, said members of the party should be wary of the antics of the leader of the group and keep the group at an arm’s length.

Lawal urged the immediate-past Minister of Interior to let the APC breath and take a deserving reset in order to be in tune with the political reality of the moment.

The statement reads, “Sequel to the launch of a political group, Omoluabi Progressives, by the immediate-past Minister of Interior, Mr Rauf Aregbesola, in Ilesa, Osun State, the state chapter of the party has enjoined the members and supporters of the party in the state to be wary of the antics of the leader of the group, Mr Aregbesola, and keep the group at an arm’s length because of its diabolical intention and motive.

“Is it because Aregbesola has lost at the federal level, Lagos and Osun states that he has resorted to lightening the gullible ones with pap in Osun State? Aregbesola should know that the Osun State APC of today is intact unlike those inglorious years when he was dictating the pace as the governor, the state party chairman and the Speaker of the state House of Assembly.

“It should be known to Aregbesola that the Osun politics of the APC extraction of today is far better than what it used to be when he would be the sole contributor at party meetings. Is it not surprising that Aregbesola has turned himself to an instrument of the opposition by his actions and inactions?
