See,even from amosun,ijebu remo dont like apc.they prefer pdp maybe because of late kashamu.even in 2019,dapo struggled to win his region.it was egba that saved him.parts of ogun west usually vote against apc because of GNI.this is the first time they are giving apc bloc

GNI is actually my uncle and from the same LG but the reason why most of our people been voting for him is because of the quest to produce a governor from the Yewa Awori region. To be sincere , we have always been supporting other districts but they've not been returning the favour for once .


I believe we will get it right this time around with Yayi

senatordave1:


Egbas failed dapo.they didnt even vote otegbeye.yayi and yewa saved dapo

Dapo Abiodun only lost Abeokuta South. He won the five other LGs of Egbaland

How sure they will be available 2027 for contest

Sammy07:


If he picks egba, egbas are likely to be the next after Him.

I prefer Ijebu jare..

Deputy of Dapo is awori

We have huge population of Yewas in Abeokuta especially Abeokuta North and the Yewas are likely the dominating population in Abeokuta North and Ado-odo Ota .


Ogun West candidate will score considerable number of votes in this LG in 2027 .

Sammy07:


Yeah, APC can't afford that. Lado lost with less than 15k.

I'm sure Even Oyo with PDP will benefit from APC tinubu govt.

I'm not sure of Osun, the gov not seem to align with Asiwaju.

BTW, we don't know what's up for Ondo later next year. It should be zoned to Ondo south sha, I'm sure eyitayo will pick up PDP form from the central again


I don't even want SW to lose any state to PDP during the 8 years of Tinubu

Apc will win Oyo after Makinde.seems makinde will want to handover to ogundoyin the speaker.Ibadan has dominated too much,time for ogbomoso, oke ogun or Oyo.
Apc will easily retain ondo that's if they zone power to ondo south.I prefer Barr oke or hon aiyedatiwa.jegede will still take pdp ticket or miniko gives it to a useless loyalist

Yes and Gni would go to the senate

I'm not sure APC will win Oyo. Makinde is doing too well for it to go to APC easily.

E go hard b4 power leaves Ibadan. Ibadan is toooooo big and can easily align with Oyo or Oke ogun or Ogbomosho to retain it.

Except probably, the other zones do their assignments well. Like Akala

As for Ondo, Aketi might give it to his Deputy. (Seems he's a loyalist).
Dunno why Mimiko self no dey contest for senate.

Eyitayo should keep calm, he get future e go come central again 😁

Sammy07:



Wow.!

I run my business in Abeokuta North and that's where my house is , my community and CDAs around are populated by the Yewas and coupled with the traditional Yewa towns of Isaga, Ilewo , Ibara , Imala and other Yewa settlements in the LG . Even the Abeokuta CBD is under a Yewa traditional ruler ( Olubara) .

No governor hands over power in Oyo to a successor.makinde cannot transfer that love Oyo has for him.if adelabu plays his card well he can get it.I'll have preferred sen fatai buhari

Oyo didnt try for tinubu.I was expecting close to a million votes.they even gave makinde more votes.infact without Yoruba votes,tinubu would have still won

senatordave1:


Gni needs compensating

He's currently a House of Rep member elect so there's always another way to compensate him .


The current senator representing the district is from Yewa North/Imeko-Afon axis , Yayi just got elected on Yewa south /Ipokia axis ticket so the next senator from the district will likely come from Ado-odo Ota axis ( Awori) especially if the governorship candidate is coming from any of the other two districts .

Am sorry for the writer of this post, we are yet to settle the fraud of INEC in the just concluded election you are unvailing another people INEC is going to rig election for again.
It shall not be possible

Population matters.

This is exactly why Egba are always be the one to really decide..

They have the numbers..

Deykemi:
This is the problem with Nigeria, we have barely concluded one election, they're already positioning themselves for the next one. Politicians no longer come in to work for the people, they come in to plan for re-election. Then after getting re-elected, they use the next four years to deal with the enemies they acquired in their 1st tenure and position their robot to take over after them.


May God raise a kind hearted person to assist you dear, and may divine help locate you. Amen.

Well the best way to play your politics well and be prepared is to position yourself well. You dont wait for 4 years like your Obi and take advantage of opportunities, rather you position yourself well ahead of time and start building a grassroot following and mending fences and forming alliances, compromising here and taking there.

Opporunists like Atiku, Obi and GRV are no good and would do badly in office. Most of Lagos governors, for instance, worked towards it for years. One even resigned from civil service about 3 years before elections to allow him strategise and plan.

OmoOgunOriginal:
With Governor Dapo Abiodun winning a close victory at the Ogun State Governorship poll on March 18, 2023, political watchers in the state are already seeing the alignment and realignment of political heavyweights, who want to have a say on who succeeds him in office when he finishes his second term on May 28, 2027.

As the results of the election show, only two political parties, the All Progressives Congress (APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have the network, structure, and financial muscle to win the race to Oke Mosan in 2027. But who are the leading contenders for the ticket in both parties?

Here are the five leading aspirants (in no particular order) for the job of the Executive Governor of Ogun state come 2027 in my estimation, based on their popularity, acceptability, and demonstrated political ability to marshal forces for their victory:

1) Dimeji Bankole: The baby-faced former Speaker of the House of Representative has already shown his political dexterity by emerging as the youngest Speaker in the history of Nigeria, while being a bachelor. Since he was swept away by the gale of ACN in 2011 from public office, he had tried unsuccessfully to get back into public office via botched run for the PDP governorship ticket and APC presidential ticket, with a run at Oke Mosan with the ADP ticket in between.



Born November 14, 1969, he schooled at BBHS in Abeokuta before proceeding to the UK to further his education. His father, Alani Bankole, a former National Vice-Chairman and acting Chairman of the All Nigeria Peoples Party is seen by many as a political juggernaut who can make things happen for him to clinch the APC ticket come 2027, as he did in 2007 during the speakership contest.

2) Ladi Adebutu: The former House of Representative member is the main challenger under PDP to the incumbent Governor Dapo Abiodun in the last election, and has said he will challenge his defeat by all legal means possible. If he however fails to win at the tribunal, appeal court, and finally the supreme court, many political watchers expect him to throw his hat into the ring once again to vie for the post.



Born February 25, 1962 in Lagos, Ladi hails from the renowned Adebutu Family of Eti-Obale, Iperu Remo, and the Apondele royal family of Ode Remo. He schooled at Igbobi College in Lagos before proceeding to Republic of Ireland for higher education. He has proven his political acumen, having won his first election in 1992 under SDP at the age of 30. However, there are already grumblings in political circles that it would be hard for an Iperu son to succeed another after 8 years in the saddle.

3) Olamilekan Adeola (YAYI): The senator representing Lagos West is known for scoring a number of firsts in his stellar political career so far, the latest being the first Nigerian to win senatorial elections in 2 different states. Come June 2023, he will leave his seat as the senator of Lagos West, and take his newly one role as the senator of Ogun West, a role most pundits believe is in preparation for contesting for the Ogun state governorship seat under APC.



Born 10th of August 1969 in Lagos, he grew up in Alimosho, Lagos but maintained a strong connection to his ancestral root headquarters in Ilaro Ogun State. In fact he initially sought to be a Senator in Ogun State as far back as 2015 but the then governor reportedly was on a war path with him. Since then, he had built his political engine in Ogun State which most people insist delivered the seat to the incumbent in 2019 and in 2015. He would be backed by the strong sentiment that he is the best option for the Ogun West folks to have one of their own govern Ogun State for the first time.

4) Segun Showunmi: Sagacious and media savvy, the chieftain of PDP Segun Showunmi has earned his stripes in the field of politics, including contesting the ticket to vie for the Ogun State highest office with the PDP candidate in 2023 elections up till the last minute. The former spokesman to PDP Presidential Candidate Waziri Atiku Abubakar, served during the Otunba Gbenga Daniel administration in Ogun State, as Deputy Chief Press Secretary, and later Senior Special Adviser on Media.



Born in February over 5 decades ago, the University of Lagos graduate has earned the accolades of all political pundits for his media acumen and ability to pierce through political fogs with his oratory power. Coupled with the strong sentiment that it is high time the PDP give an Egba man its gubernatorial ticket for the first time, many watchers think his chance in clinching the ticket of PDP come 2027 is very high.

5) Bukola Olopade (Ozogula): A successful sports administrator, politician cum social advocate, Bukola Olopade, has shown that one can make big social in insight after public office. The former Commissioner for Youths and Sports under Otunba Gbenga Daniel is widely adjudged as the best commissioner of the ministry since the inception of the state, and has further proved his mettle in sports administration and marketing, being the brains behind the top-rated Access Bank-sponsored Lagos City Marathon, Abeokuta Marathon 10km race, Remo ultra-race, and Nilayo Football Club.



Born 54 years ago in Ughelli, he got his popular nickname, Ozogula during his BBHS, Abeokuta playing days as a student, and studied English at the then Ogun State University before going to England to study law. Seen by many as a man of the streets, his aspiration is see as one which will cause excitement amongst the youths of the state, given his performance as youth and sports commissioner. He followed Otunba Gbenga Daniel from the PDP to the APC, and will be one aspirant that pundits see as a one to watch.

Yewa Yayi Turn 2027

But he must lobby and carry evey1 along

Sammy07:


Wait Thought ipokia people are Aworis?
Somehow confusing there

Yeah, I know Ado odo Ota na awori base,more like headquarters of awori people

Ipokia are egun; across ipokia is badagry divided by water; 💯 egun.

Yewa has eguns, egbados/ANAGO, Aworis

Egbas are large but don’t own Yewa.

Ado ota is Awori; just like Lagos Iworo and many parts of Lagos.

GNI is actually my uncle and from the same LG but the reason why most of our people been voting for him is because of the quest to produce a governor from the Yewa Awori region. To be sincere , we have always been supporting other districts but they've not been returning the favour for once .


I believe we will get it right this time around with Yayi

You people are the reason you haven't produce governor,you always present 2 or more candidate and split your votes instead of presenting 1 candidate and give him block votes.i hope that change next election year because I also want to Yewa/awori man/woman to be governor of Ogun state

2027 will be between YAYI of APC vs the incubent LADI ADEBUTU of PDP.

haffaze777:

Yayi ✅✅✅ because it's Yewa/Awori turn

Bankole ✅✅ Though it's Yewa/Awori turn but Egbas can still dribble them

Segun sowunmi✅ he's not that strong in Ogun state

Ozogula ❎❎❎❎❎unknown person

Lado❎❎❎❎❎❎❎❎❎❎ This one will have to wait for ijebu turn,either after 8 or 16 years depending

go and write it down 2027 will be betweeen Yayi of Apc vs the Incubent governor Adebutu of PDP.

This is not true and incorrect . Ogun West is not the only region with multiple candidates coming out for gubernatorial election so using that as an excuse is wrong .


Kashamu and LADO contested the governorship election against DA and DA later emerged the winner and the same LADO still contested against DA few days ago from the same Ogun East and one of them still emerged as the governor elect again.

Abeg comot Ozogula from the list

If Yewa are insisting of producing Yayi, then Bankole should have it from Ogun central

As if they control the death, forgotten that death is inevitable.
