Former Ijebu East Local Government Area Chairman, Wale Adedayo, has announced that the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has lost touch with the people of Ogun State and is set to lose the 2027 governorship election. Adedayo, who served under Governor Dapo Abiodun, made these comments during an appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme.
He believes that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) nominee, Oladipupo Adebutu, will emerge victorious in all 20 local government areas and 236 wards of the state. Adedayo attributes the APC's decline to a loss of numerical strength, waning popularity, and the shift of major stakeholders, including some within the ruling party, towards the PDP.
He also challenges the APC's candidate, Senator Solomon Adeola, to provide evidence of his Ogun State ancestry, accusing him of fraudulent claims. Adedayo predicts that the governorship race will be significantly different from the 2023 election, where APC won by a margin of 14,000 votes. He emphasizes the importance of voters being well-informed when making their choices, stating that democracy hinges on informed decision-making.
