Why Ogun Voters Greet APC’s New Flagbearer With Fatigue, Not Cheer

Governor Dapo Abiodun’s endorsement of Senator Olamilekan Adeola was meant to signal continuity. But in many Ogun communities, applause has given way to fatigue and a hope that “any other will be better.” Border towns adjoining Lagos reveal the administration’s weakest link. Roads collapse upon entry into Ogun. Projects appear isolated and poorly sequenced. The gains of completed works are steadily undermined by neglect in critical areas. Major economic corridors in Ado-Odo/Ota and Ifo lack the infrastructure that would unlock their full potential. Rural roads often end without linking to key markets. Even high-profile initiatives like the agro-cargo hub struggle without transport support. As 2027 nears, voters are asking hard questions: Are projects matched to economic priorities? Do strategic routes receive sustained investment? For many, the answer lies in the condition of the roads — and the verdict is clear.
