A Coalition of Civil Society groups in Osun State, The Osun Masterminds, has called on the Minister of Interior and former Governor of Osun State, Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, to show respect to the office of the incumbent Governor, no matter the rancour between them.
Speaking through a press release signed by the Executive Director of the Group, Wasiu Oyedokun-Alli, and made available to our correspondent, the Group stated that the former Governor “must desist from acts that make it appear to the public as if he is utilizing the paraphernalia of the Federal Government to oppress defenceless citizens. He must be seen to be acting in ways that accord respect to the office he presently holds and to the office of the Governor, who is the Chief Security Officer of the State.”
The group, through the press release also advised the Minister of Interior to “understand that as he enjoyed a crisis-free tenure of office, unencumbered by undue interference from his predecessors, he must not unduly interfere with the business of Governance in Osun under his successor.”
