2027: Why We Are Not Talking About Any Other Person In Ogun West



By Okanlomo Yomi Yommaz 


It is a well  known and undeniable fact that since the creation of Ogun State on the 3rd of February 1976,the governorship position in the gateway State has always been a batton -exchange between two Senatorial Districts out of the three,namely ;Ogun Central and Ogun East leaving the third Senatorial District, Ogun West always in the cold.Even to the deaf and dumb,it is unarguable and undebatable.


Ogun West ( Yewa / Awori) the district where I come from),has long been a crying baby with nobody caring to listen, nobody caring to fact-check  so as to pacify the weeping baby.


A State of 20 local governments with the following structure, namely; Ogun West ( 5 local governments),Ogun Central ( 6 local governments) and Ogun East ( 9 local governments).And at every election,the total votes of Ogun West determines the final results and eventually the winner.It is therefore pitiable to have denied such a golden fowl that lays the golden eggs the golden opportunity to be at Okemosan at least for once.

A student of political history and the general public should know that Ogun West has long been short changed in this very direction.Let us digest as follows:


SECOND REPUBLIC ( 1978-1983)


1.CHIEF OLABISI ONABANJO - OGUN EAST - 1978-1983

2.CHIEF OLABISI ONABANJO -OGUN EAST- 1983-( 2nd Term) MILITARY COUP OF GENERAL BUHARI BROUGHT AN END TO THE REPUBLIC.


THIRD REPUBLIC

General Babangida did not allow this to see the light of the day.


FOURTH REPUBLIC ( From 1999)


3.CHIEF SEGUN OSOBA-OGUN CENTRAL -1999-2003

4.OTUNBA GBENGA DANIEL -OGUN EAST-2003-2007

5.OTUNBA GBENGA DANIEL -( 2nd Term)-OGUN EAST-2007-2011

6.SENATOR IBIKUNLE AMOSUN- OGUN CENTRAL-2011-2015

7.SENATOR IBIKUNLE AMOSUN-OGUN ( 2nd Term) CENTRAL-2015-2019

8.PRINCE DAPO ABIODUN -OGUN EAST-2019-2023

9.PRINCE DAPO ABIODUN - OGUN EAST ( 2nd Term )-2023- PRESENT 


Haabaa,where lies Ogun West Senatorial District in all of these and we claimed and proclaimed that Ogun State belongs to us all.

In the past,at the end of every electioneering period when Ogun West would have been systematically schemed out,the popular axiom had always been that their candidate was unpopular, their candidate was financially weak, their candidate was not formidable.


APPEAL


Come 2027,Ogun West has no reasons or excuses to fail because the year appears a golden opportunity for the district which we should not allow to slip off our hands.

If Ogun West is really committed this time,we should, without any bias,rally round the round peg in the round hole and that is no any  other person than Senator Adeola Olamilekan YAYI whose popularity has spread across the whole  state like a wild fire.

In terms of popularity,finance,charisma, capability and very solid profile, Senator Adeola YAYI is eminently qualified as he stands out.

That is the reason why we are not talking about any other person in Ogun West other than Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola, FCA  against 2027.Anything short of that,God forbids, would be the same old story.


Thank you and God bless.

Exclusive: How Former Minister Malami and Ex-Rep Shehu Koko Imported Notorious Bandits to Destabilise Kebbi ***Meet Waterloo in the Hands of Angry Residents, APC Supporters

Image
A devious plot orchestrated by former Attorney-General of the Federation, Abubakar Malami (SAN), and disgraced ex-Representative Muhammad Shehu Koko to destabilise Kebbi State has spectacularly backfired. The duo, now prominent figures in the African Democratic Congress (ADC), allegedly imported notorious bandits and thugs to wreak havoc in the state, only to be met with fierce resistance from enraged residents and loyal All Progressives Congress (APC) supporters. The incident, which unfolded on Monday in Birnin Kebbi, has exposed the underhanded tactics of Malami and Koko, revealing a sordid pact rooted in political desperation and criminal collusion. According to multiple sources, Malami and Koko, both recent defectors from the APC to the ADC, conspired to unleash chaos in Kebbi State to bolster their fledgling political relevance. Malami, who served as AGF from 2015 to 2023 under the late President Muhammadu Buhari, resigned from the APC on July 2, 2025, and joined the ADC, reported...
