Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola, the Minister of Interior, has broken silence over the alleged feud with the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
While reacting, Aregbesola debunked claims of nursing presidential ambition in 2023 and also dismissed claims that he is at war with his leader and mentor, Tinubu.
Aregbesola disclosed this in Abuja this afternoon against report published by an online medium, The Cable.
He reiterated that his loyalty to Asiwaju is not only total but that his commitment to whatever the leader wants is unwavering.
The minister explained that ‘he knew where the story was coming from and the identity of those sponsoring it. ‘Rift with Asiwaju Tinubu? Nothing can be more impossible! Nothing can be farther from the truth. I remain committed to my mentor,’ Aregbesola said.
He added that “the group our detractors claim has been banned is the most committed to the realization of Asiwaju’s ambition.”
The minister noted “They even said I have presidential ambition. False!”
Aregbesola reiterated that the APC is one, adding that the party is like an oak tree that keeps growing.
He said his focus and goal is to execute his ministerial duties as directed by President Muhammadu Buhari.
The former Governor urged his supporters to ignore the publication in its entirety and refrain from being distracted from the goal of building a strong APC as well as a united Nigeria.
