Attributes career success to God, Tinubu, Buhari
The immediate past Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola, yesterday, said he was not in conflict with anyone, stressing his resolve to work with anyone in returning the progressives back to power in Osun State.
He said that irrespective of what happened in the past, members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) must heal and jettison personal gains for reinvigoration of the party.
Aregbesola spoke at a homecoming reception organised by his political supporters in Osogbo, Osun State capital. Besides, the former governor of the state also attributed the successes he recorded in life politically to God, President Bola Tinubu and immediate past President Muhammadu Buhari.
However, speaking in Yoruba, while seeking forgiveness from those he might have erred and also singing songs for remission, Aregbesola said: “I hold no grudge with anyone in Osogbo or Osun State. My hands are wide open to work and receive anyone. I hold no grudge against anyone.
“It’s possible we didn’t offend them but if they think we have erred, we beg for forgiveness. We believe in God and the people. God won’t forsake and disappoint us. After this, I won’t beg anyone again for forgiveness.”
Aregbesola, who also paid homage to the Owa Obokun of Ijesaland, Oba Gabriel Aromolaran and Ataoja of Osogboland, Oba Oyetunji Olanipekun, said the support of Tinubu and Buhari enabled his success.
He expressed gratitude to family, friends, colleagues and associates for standing by him throughout his sojourn as commissioner, governor and minister, praising them for their support. Aregbesola, who was accompanied by his wife, Sherifat, had embarked on a road show, apparently to test his popularity in the state.
