The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has expelled a former Minister of Interior and ex-Osun State Governor, Rauf Aregbesola, over alleged anti-party activities.
This was disclosed in a letter addressed to Aregbesola by the APC on Wednesday, January 29, 2025.
The letter was titled “Allegations of Anti-Party Activities – Conveyance of State Exco Decision to You.”
The APC accused Aregbesola of breaching Article 21 of the party’s constitution, which outlines disciplinary measures for members.
Aregbesola, a two-term former governor of Osun State, had spearheaded a faction within the APC known as The Osun Progressives which was later rebranded as the Omoluabi Caucus.

The letter read in part: “At the end of the investigation, the State Executive Committee (SEC) considered the report of the Disciplinary Committee.
“Having carefully reviewed the findings and recommendations, the SEC resolved to approve your immediate expulsion from the APC.
“The decision was predicated on clear evidence of your actions, which undermined the unity and integrity of the party.
“As a result, you are no longer a member of the APC and must refrain from holding yourself out as one or acting on behalf of the party in any capacity.”
Aregbesola’s expulsion followed a meeting of the Omoluabi Caucus, presided over by the former minister, where the group announced its decision to exit the APC.
