Solomon Adeola, also known as Yayi, the APC governorship candidate for the 2027 Ogun State election and current senator representing Ogun West, revealed his intention to appoint the late renowned actor Ogogo as his Special Adviser on Culture and Tourism. This announcement was made during a meeting with Ogogo's family at their residence in Ilaro, Ogun State.
In a video clip that has since gone viral on social media, Yayi stated, "I planned to make Ogogo my Special Adviser on Culture and Tourism. Not just as SA but as a full cabinet member if I won the election and became the governor of Ogun State. 'That was my plan. I kept it to myself and I was working with it. Believing that God will do it.'"
Tragically, Ogogo passed away at the age of 66 on August 23, 2026, after a battle with stage 4 cancer. During his illness, Yayi stood by the actor, playing a significant role as one of the primary financiers, covering Ogogo's medical expenses.
