The saying ‘’Behind a successful man is a woman’’ aptly describes the situation with Governor Gboyega Oyetola, of Osun state with an addition ‘’a powerful woman’’.

Beautiful wife Alhaja Kafayat has been identified as one of the major pillars behind Governor Oyetola.

‘’She is also seen on the street as the most powerful person in his government’’ societynow.ng learned.

The information available to societynow.ng via a report on highstreet.ng revealed that Alhaja Kafayat has so mastered the knack of getting around her husband that those who want to get things done in his government now ‘’besiege her’’ for favors.

Societynow.ng gathered that many witnessed Alhaja’s ability to get Governor Oyetola ‘’ going’’ during the campaign to become ruling All Progressives Congress gubernatorial candidate in Osun state.

‘’At a point, Oyetola wanted to throw in the towel in face of more intense efforts by Adelere Oriolowo but Alhaji would have none of that. It took Alhaja’s will to keep Oyetola going and increased his efforts to clinch the ticket’’ societynow.ng learned.

Insiders disclosed that Alhaja also played pivotal roles during the campaign proper by emboldening her husband to reach for greater heights.

Societynow.ng learned that though Alhaja Kafayat operated in Oyetola’s shadow, those who worked with them during the party’s primary election and gubernatorial election quickly deciphered the real power is with the wife.

‘’Increasing knowledge of the kind of influence she wields with her husband is why they are saying Alhaja Kafayat is the most powerful person in his government ’’ a source stated.

Societynow.ng learned that this development is especially because, as the knowledge of the special bond she shares with her husband grows, other politicians and appointees in government ‘’fall inline’’ whenever Alhaja Kafayat calls.
