The Punch reports that Aregbesola noted he campaigned passionately for Oyetola's first tenure as governor only to be rewarded with ingratitude.
Aregbesola said:
“I begged him for two years and even sent people to him. Everything we did together for eight years, he destroyed.
“When I saw that he is firm on this enmity, I told God about it. If Bola Ige comes back to this earth, he will join us. We are carrying the mandate of this party."
