“Ogbeni Rauf Soji Aregbesola. Omo Ilu Oke that has privilege of sojourning in Lagos where he met PBAT. He came to govern Osun with a mindset of a socialist cum welfarist.
Oke said most of the projects done during the administration of Aregbesola in Osun are still being enjoyed by the residents of the state till date.
He wrote, “He had a big dream for Osun State just like PBAT. He opened up Osun’s Economy, but he had limited resources to work with. He built new Mega Schools in the process of revamping our Education sector, he stepped on many toes, obliterate history of so many schools. He bought equipments into our Technical Colleges which our children are benefitting from today.
“Downsides, most of the people he engaged were Osun abroad people and technocrats, Huge Debts which wasn’t a crime as far as am concerned. I also borrow. Ogbeni is a great man. He is good to be your friend tha. enemy.”
