Gbemisola who is also a strong member of All Progressives Congress (APC) rose above political affiliation to express her displeasure over the demolition of 'Ile Arugbo', the legacy building of the Saraki political dynasty in Ilorin which was ordered by Governor Abdul Rahman AbdulRazaq, The Cable reports.
The transportation minister said in a statement released on Friday January 3, that she felt disrespected that the governor did not deem it fit to consult with her before taking the action, knowing that she is a member of APC that brought him into power.
Ile Arugbo is regarded as the political house of Olusola Saraki, Gbemisola's and Bukola Saraki's father.
Gbemisola, further condemning the demolition, called on the people of the state to stand up against vindictive politics, driven by envy, motivated by jealousy and practised without integrity.
She said the mission of the Otoge movement which brought the APC to power in 2019 was not about the destruction of the Saraki's political dynasty but the removal of the failed PDP government.
