Go And Prostrate Before Tinubu – Federal Lawmaker Tells Aregbesola

“Go And Prostrate Before Tinubu” – Federal Lawmaker Tells Aregbesola | #Politicsnigeria

The lawmaker representing Obokun/Oriade Federal Constituency in Osun State, Oluwole Oke, has advised former Governor Rauf Aregbesola to reconcile with President Bola Tinubu, urging him to “go and beg, prostrate, and make peace” with his former political leader.

Oke, a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), made the remark in a social media post on Sunday, stating that if he were in Aregbesola’s position, that is exactly what he would do.

His statement comes amid growing political tension in Osun State, where Aregbesola’s faction, Omoluabi Progressives, recently announced its exit from the All Progressives Congress (APC) due to unresolved conflicts with the mainstream party.

The division was caused by a prolonged feud between Aregbesola and his successor, Adegboyega Oyetola, as well as reports of a fallout between Aregbesola and Tinubu.

“If I were in his shoes, I would go and beg, prostrate, and make peace with my principal, PBAT [President Bola Ahmed Tinubu].

“Assuming I were a member of the APC in Osun, I would ensure that Asiwaju Gboyega Oyetola and Ogbeni Aregbesola reconcile. As we know, ‘Ija o dola’ – fighting doesn’t bring wealth,” Oke wrote.

While calling Aregbesola a major political force in Osun, Oke also urged the PDP to capitalize on the APC’s internal divisions, describing the former minister as a “bride” in the state’s politics.

“The PDP must act fast, pay the necessary dowry, and bring this ‘bride’ into their fold.

“Ogbeni can still pull a minimum of 20,000 votes in Ife/Ijesa Senatorial District. His influence in Ijesa North and Ijesa South is undeniable,” he said.

Oke concluded by predicting that Aregbesola would remain a key player in Osun politics, saying, “Baba Kabiru is a factor. Keep this post and check back after 2026.”
