Governor Dapo Abiodun has thrown his weight behind Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola, popularly known as Yayi, who has been unanimously adopted as the All Progressives Congress (APC) consensus governorship candidate for the 2027 election in Ogun State. The endorsement came at the ongoing strategic caucus meeting of the APC in Ogun State, where key stakeholders and party leaders reached a consensus on the choice of candidate.
Sources at the meeting indicate that the decision reflects a unified front within the party, aimed at consolidating its political strength and ensuring continuity of governance in the state. Senator Adeola, a prominent figure within the APC and a serving lawmaker, enjoys wide support across party structures. His emergence as consensus candidate is seen as a strategic move to avoid internal divisions and present a strong, united front ahead of the polls.
