Ogun 2027: Yayi’s Endorsement Sparks Regional Debate
This morning someone tagged me in a thread about a few state assembly members endorsing Yayi for Ogun governor. They assume these lawmakers can deliver votes, but can they even win their own seats? Every election in Ogun is local. Yayi comes from Yewa, a minority region, while Ogun Central has dominated politics for decades. It feels odd that someone who served over 20 years as a federal lawmaker and senator suddenly targets the state house. What concrete achievements or personal projects has Yayi delivered in Ogun? Who really benefits from his youth empowerment programs beyond party loyalists? Being close to President Tinubu doesn’t guarantee control over Ogun voters. Even past leaders from our state struggle to stay relevant after office. Online supporters of Yayi should learn that Ogun politics is far more complex than they think.
