2027: Ogun students demand sustained investment in education, infrastructure

The Yayi-Kudirat Students Campaign Organization (YAKSCO) has urged the next government in Ogun State to maintain and expand investment in education, scholarships, infrastructure, and roads, stating that these developments should not be abandoned due to political transitions. The group's convener, Oladimeji Uthman, emphasized that education is crucial in reducing inequality and should be a top priority for the incoming administration in 2027.

Under Governor Dapo Abiodun's leadership, Ogun State has emerged as a leading industrial and investment destination in Nigeria, creating employment and entrepreneurship opportunities. The coalition, which is supporting the All Progressives Congress candidate, Olamilekan Adeola (YAYI), and his running mate, Kudirat Adegunwa-Balogun, for the 2027 election, believes that the next government should consolidate existing successes and further expand opportunities for young people.

The group is actively engaging with campus stakeholders and conducting voter registration awareness, educational programs, and interactions with students across Ogun State. They are committed to maintaining peaceful, issue-based political engagement within the law.
