“A commissioner in the cabinet of Governor Oyetola had invited him meeting urging him to renounce his membership of the Osun Progressives (TOP). But he refused and declared that Aregbesola is his leader.
“The next thing was the invitation by the director of SSS where he was alleged to have made some statements against the Governor and asked about his membership of the T.O.P. While denying making any statement against the Governor, Boladale affirmed his membership of TOP and unalloyed loyalty to Aregbesola who he said did a lot of good things that he appreciates.”
The group condemned the arrest of the ex-councillor.
