Gov. Aregbesola visits his PDP predecessor, Oyinlola, at night

Few weeks after he held a closed door meeting with the PDP chairman, Adamu Muazu, the former governor of Osun state, Olagunsoye Oyinlola met for about an hour with the incumbent APC governor of the state,  Rauf Aregbesola onMonday night.

It was Aregbesola who visited Oyinlola at his residence in Okuku, in Odo Otin Local Government Area of the state.

The meeting held for about an hour.

Although none of the aides of the two politicians disclosed what their principals discussed, many believed that the discussion centred on the August 9 governorship election.

There was acrimony between the duo when the Court of Appeal sacked Oyinlola from office on November 26, 2010 following a tribunal case which lasted over three years.

The APC senator representing Osun Central Senatorial District, Prof. Sola Adeyeye, had earlier visited the residence of the former governor.

Aregbesola’s visit to Oyinlola is seen by some as a move to woo the former governor

to work for him in the governorship election in which Senator Iyiola Omisore is representing the PDP.

Oyinlola was among the aggrieved PDP leaders who formed the defunct New PDP when five governors moved to the APC but he decided to stay back in the PDP.
