From Lateef Dada, Osogbo
A former deputy speaker of the House of Representatives, Lasun Yusuf, has lambasted former Osun State governor and immediate past interior minister, Rauf Aregbesola, for boasting that he would declare where he is going in 2024.
He said Aregbesola was only hallucinating about returning to a political leadership position in the state, saying, ‘his terrain of influence is gone.’
Speaking on a private radio station in Osogbo, Yusuf said Aregbesola can never become a leader of any political system in the state again. “I always wish him well. We were together. We have come a long way. We spent quality time together in politics, but what I know is that his terrain of influence is gone in the political firmament of Osun. He cannot be a leader of any political system in the state again.
“Though he tried to ensure progressive retain power in Osun while exiting office, what I know is that he is only trying but it is too late to become a leader in the state as he has been struggling to.
“I said this because I knew he became a governor by collective leadership. Just as I couldn’t become a governor as I wished so also that it is not easy for him to become the leader of any political system that he wishes to be.
“For him to be saying he would let people know where he is going before the end of this year, is nothing but a ruse; time has passed by on that. Life doesn’t wait for such,” Yusuf said.
