APC Youths organization Birthday Wish for Aregbesola at 62

Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola

Putting Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola and Awolowo ( Asiwaju awon Yoruba) in the same petridish for analysis is an overreaching attempt at painting a picture in the clouds. But for every season, there is a man, who must push further the frontiers of legacies left by the heroes past.

Comrade Ogunolu Samsideen Opeyemi in his statement to the VAM News, described Aregbesola as a remarkable man. I reckon he was the first governor to run a citizen government by introducing Omoluabi in Osun.

 He was open, reachable and without the excess appurtenances of office; a quality which endeared him to the masses of Osun. 

His achievements in the state despite the “Economy hardship” will outlive him, and are even now the stuff of legend.

Over the years, he has fought and won many political battles, earning the deserving title of “Omoluabi of Yoruba land” 

APC Youth Organization president, Comrade Ogunolu APC Youth Organization president says Aregbesola has succeeded in bringing the Yoruba to the centre of Nigerian politics again. Beyond this, I think there is no other benefit in terms of development, policy direction or infrastructure development in the region.

It is common knowledge that Awolowo introduced free primary education and free healthcare for all children in the western region, and increased the earnings from agriculture by boosting cocoa production. He also pursued the Yoruba agenda with an ideology or philosophy.

 

Happy birthday Ogbeni Aregbesola.
