Former Interior Minister Rauf Aregbesola returned to Osun State on Wednesday to a rousing welcome from supporters.
The former governor stated that he has nothing against those who hold grudges against him and that they have valid reasons for doing so.
After serving in the federal cabinet from 2015 to 2023, Aregbesola was honored with a homecoming reception in Osogbo, the capital.
His convoy passed through Osogbo/Ilesa road, Ilesa Garage, Oke-Ijetu, Oke-Ayepe, Ita-Olokan, and eventually arrived at Ataoja’s Palace in Oja-Oba.
He thanked his supporters for their support over the years, stating that “the eulogies have not stopped” since he left office.
It was because of my promise to the then Ataoja of Osogbo that I picked my deputy from Osogbo.
Anyone who has issues with me has his/her reasons, but I hold no grudge against anyone, he noted.
Argebsola thanked ex-President Muhammadu Buhari for appointing him and hailed Osogbo and its people “for adopting me as their son”.
