Rauf Aregbesola, the interior minister, and Adegboyega Oyetola, the governor of the state, have not reconciled, according to Lowo Adebiyi, the chairman of “The Osun Progressives,” a faction within the All Progressives Congress in Osun State.
During the most recent APC governorship primary in the state, the Osun Progressives, with Aregbesola’s support, backed Moshood Adeoti against Oyetola, who ultimately secured the party’s nomination.
Days before the primary election, however, revealed long-standing animosities between the two men, despite their initial denials.

However, on Sunday, images of Oyetola and Aregbesola sharing a warm embrace with accompanying text appeared on social media, indicating that the two had made up.
Adebiyi, who was contacted for comment, said that the images were being distributed by Ileri Oluwa, Oyetola’s campaign organization.
According to him, the two guys have not yet reconciled.
“They are old pictures. Members of the Ileri Oluwa group are behind it. Disregard them. If there will be reconciliation, it is not pictures that you will see first. The discussion will be held first. No discussion yet. Nothing happened. No reconciliation yet,” Adebiyi said.
