The All Progressives Congress (APC) has expelled former Minister of Interior and former Osun State Governor, Rauf Aregbesola, over alleged anti-party activities.
Aregbesola, who served two terms as Governor of Osun State, had led a faction within the APC called The Osun Progressives, which was later rebranded as the Omoluabi Caucus.
A letter from the APC leadership, seen by news outlets on Wednesday, officially confirmed Aregbesola’s expulsion.

The letter, titled “Allegations of Anti-Party Activities – Conveyance of State Exco Decision to You,” accused him of violating Article 21 of the party’s constitution, which outlines the disciplinary measures for members.
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.”
The former minister’s expulsion followed a Sunday meeting of the Omoluabi Caucus, presided over by Aregbesola, where the group announced its decision to exit the APC, citing the party’s waning influence in Osun.
