Former Osun State Governor Rauf Aregbesola and his supporters have officially parted ways with the All Progressives Congress (APC). This move, which has been the subject of speculation for several months, marks a pivotal shift in Osun State’s political dynamics.
Sources close to the situation indicate that Aregbesola and his loyalists are on the verge of announcing the formation of a new political party. The unveiling is expected in the coming days, with further details about the party’s name, logo, and manifesto anticipated soon.
Aregbesola’s exit from the APC follows a prolonged period of internal strife, particularly with his successor and the immediate past Governor of Osun State, Gboyega Oyetola. The rift between Aregbesola and the state’s APC leadership had fueled ongoing rumors about his political future, which now seem to be taking shape.
Political analysts suggest that the creation of this new party could significantly alter the political landscape in Osun State. It also poses potential challenges for the APC as the nation gears up for the next general elections.
