Recent allegations suggest that Governor Adegboyega Oyetola didn’t follow through on some agreements he had with the leadership of the All Progressives Congress (APC) before his assumption into office.

Before Oyetola became Governor, he had allegedly resolved to reverse major legacy policies of the last administration under which he served as Chief of Staff.

In an interview, a starlwart of the Social Democratic Party, SDP, said that Oyetola reached an agreement with the party where he accepted to reverse all the legacies of the immediate past administration which he has done to the satisfaction of the SDP and its loyalists.

He said: “One, we said we will support them (APC) if they would take another look at the educational programs of the immediate past administration of Governor Rauf Aregbesola, because we, in SDP, did not like the idea of a single uniform policy of the administration. We did not also like the idea of elementary and middle schools.”

According to feelers, these statements revealed the unity of ideas between the Governor and SDP stalwarts to jointly see to the abandonement of the legacies of the previous administration.

Speaking to newsmen, a member of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Osun revealed that around six months ago, Oyetola still categorically stated to the APEX leadership of the APC in Osun that he was not working to undermine the previous administration.

He said: “We held several meetings before and after the election where Oyetola expressly stated that he was not disposed to working the previous administration.

“He said going by Omisore’s antecedents and what he is capable of doing, it would be pretty difficult to work together. Little did we know that he (Oyetola) was pretending to us. He pretended that he was not akin to work with him but has been doing the contrary since he got into office.”

Political watchers in the state have, however, situated the current trend with the seeming cordial relationship between Omisore and Oyetola in the last three years. Oyetola and Omisore have been seen together at gatherings and events of the government.

Also, Omisore had during the membership registration/revalidation exercise of the APC defected to the party in 2021, making him a member of the party. He was later in the year inducted into Igbimo Agba, the Osun APC Elders Caucus based on the agreement with Oyetola.

The alliance between Omisore and Oyetola key political watchers in Osun continue to gain strength with the former and latter’s meetings all in a bid to secure a second term for the Governor.
