Ogun State Governor, Dapo Abiodun, has announced that Senator Solomon Adeola (popularly known as Yayi) is the consensus candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the 2027 governorship election in Ogun State.
The announcement was made during a political meeting in the state, where party stakeholders reportedly reached a consensus on the senator’s candidacy.
What This Means
The declaration positions Senator Adeola as the frontrunner for the APC ticket ahead of the 2027 elections, pending formal ratification by the party’s national leadership.
Political observers say the move is aimed at strengthening party unity and reducing internal competition ahead of the election cycle.
