"Thank you, Mr. Tunji Malomo, for your bold and well-articulated piece. Only those who truly know our political history and are not blinded by loyalty to individuals over the truth will understand the weight of your words.
When people accuse His Excellency Rauf Aregbesola of betrayal, one wonders: "*How long must a man be loyal before he is allowed to have a mind of his own?"* l Is loyalty slavery? Or is it mutual respect?
*Let’s take a journey through the forgotten pages of history:*
1. *Tinubu's Betrayal of Afenifere:*
The Yoruba elders of Afenifere gave Tinubu a platform when he was a political nobody. But what happened after he tasted power? He threw them aside like yesterday’s newspaper and built his personal empire. That was the first great betrayal.
2. *The Abacha Chapter* :
Many may not remember, but Tinubu once sought favour from the same Abacha he later pretended to fight against. His exile was not born of sacrifice but of disappointment when Abacha refused him. He didn’t run because of democracy; he ran because his expectations were cut short.
3. *The June 12 Deceit:*
Even the late MKO Abiola’s family can not forget how Tinubu traded the June 12 struggle for personal gain. Kola Abiola himself exposed these betrayals. While some bled for the cause, others bargained for personal survival.
4. *Oyetola vs Aregbesola - Family Over Party:*
Aregbesola built Osun APC with sweat and sacrifice. But when it was time for succession, Tinubu chose blood over merit. Oyetola, his cousin, was handed the ticket. Even the one-term gentleman’s agreement was broken. If this isn’t betrayal, then what is?
5. *Alpha Beta and the Empire of Greed:*
How many bright minds brought ideas to the Lagos political table, only for Tinubu to pocket them and claim them as his own? Alpha Beta is just one of the many examples where brains were stolen, and loyalty was betrayed for profit.
6. *Aregbesola's Years of Service:*
For almost 30 years, Aregbesola served Tinubu with unquestionable loyalty. From the trenches of NADECO to the corridors of Lagos State, from Osun’s political storms to APC’s national battles. Yet, when he asked for fairness, he was branded a traitor...."
