Osun State Governor, Mr. Rauf Aregbesola, visited his predecessor in office, Prince Olagunsoye Oyinlola, at his residence in Okuku, in Odo Otin Local Government Area of the state.
Our correspondent gathered on Tuesday that Aregbesola visited the the estranged National Secretary of the PDP on Monday night and the duo held a meeting 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.
