A group of All Progressives Congress, APC faithful has alleged plot to kill former Osun State governor, Rauf Aregbesola.
The latter and his successor, ex-governor of the state, Adegboyega Oyetola’s relationship has long broken off, with both in a long-drawn supremacy battle.
Operating under the name, Omoluabi Progressives Caucus, the Aregbesola’s led group imputed plot to exterminate the former Internal Affairs Minister to loyalists of Oyetola, citing an article by a media aide of the incumbent Marine and Blue Economy Minister.
It made this allegation via a statement its organising and publicity secretary, Comrade Abosede Oluwaseun released, in which it referred to the said article by the following quote, “Yet with the feeling of self-importance, he continues to wage war against the structure which brought him into limelight.
“But let me say for the umpteenth time that if Aregbesola continues his political war against the party and persons that brought him to political reckoning, he may not survive it.”
Oluwaseun wrote further: “We urgently draw the attention of the law enforcement agencies and all responsible individuals to the evident and explicit threats against the life and freedom of Ogbeni Rauf Adesoji Aregbesola, clearly expressed in this hostile narrative.
“We cannot dismiss the clear murderous intent openly canvassed in the statement. This is very important because of the wicked antecedents of these people.”
