Aregbesola Reacts to Adeleke’s Victory Sends Ambiguous Message

From Ogundele Olanrewaju

Former Osun State Governor, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola has reacted to the victory of the candidate of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, Ademola Adeleke in the just concluded governorship election.

Aregbesola, who was outside the country on Saturday, reacted to the polls in a cryptic message he posted on his Facebook page.

The Minister of Interior and incumbent Governor Adegboyega Oyetola have been at loggerheads since 2019 and it was believed that members of the Osun Progressives, the group loyal to the Minister didn’t work for Oyetola’s reelection.

In his post on Facebook titled Osun Le Tente, Aregbesola quoted a biblical verse.”

“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).
