Former Osun State Governor and ex-Minister of Interior, Rauf Aregbesola, has spearheaded a significant political realignment in Lagos State, as members from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Labour Party, and other factions officially joined the African Democratic Congress (ADC) during an affirmation ceremony. This move, captured in a video shared by Aregbesola on X on Saturday, August 23, 2025, signals a strategic consolidation ahead of the 2027 general elections.
Aregbesola, now the interim national secretary of the ADC, addressed the gathering, drawing on historical parallels to underscore the urgency of political change. Quoting Obafemi Awolowo’s 1983 speech, he remarked, “Binary compounds of thesis and antithesis, which may be evolutionary or revolutionary, in which—whether we like it or not—all human beings are inescapably involved… When the war is over, only the best of us will be accommodated in the synthesis, with the best in antithesis in complete dominance.” He further emphasized the current crises, stating, “Across the nation, the spectre of insecurity looms large as sundry criminals lay siege on the people, making economic and social activities nearly impossible. People now live in mortal fear for their lives and property.”
