Aregbesola and South-West

Osun State Governor Rauf Aregbesola
 

Many thanks to Azuka Onwuka on his Tuesday, January 28, 2014 write-up on the topic referred to above.

I love to read Onwuka’s articles. I have copies of some of his past write-ups, including the piece on Yoruba’s unbeatable religious tolerance in the August 24 edition of The PUNCH as well as that of July 9, 2013 on “The Harm Nigeria does to the North”. His articles are always eye-opening.

Onwuka has rightly hit the nail on the head with his January 28 write-up on “The Harm Aregbesola does to the South-West”.

Sincerely speaking, Governor Rauf Aregbesola of Osun State is dangerously fanning the embers of religious intolerance in the South-West and it is only proper that he is cautioned or forewarned before it is too late. I will particularly call on the All Progressives Congress leadership, a party that is already being accused by the Peoples Democratic Party of planning to Islamise Nigeria, to rein in on the governor; otherwise, the party may not find favour with or acceptance by the South-West come 2015. If Aregbesola is a true Awoist, as he claims to be, he should not destroy what Papa Awolowo took years to build in Yorubaland.

As Onwuka has rightly said, we should all learn a lesson from what is presently going on in the North.
