Omission of name proves Adebutu is next Ogun Governor – Sowunmi-Kolapo

According to Lateefat Sowunmi-Kolapo, the deputy governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the 2027 election in Ogun State, the omission of her running mate, Hon. Oladipupo Adebutu's name from the list published by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is a clear indication that he will be the next governor of Ogun State.

Sowunmi-Kolapo made this claim on Friday after Jumat prayers at the Nawair-ud-deen Mosque in Abeokuta, where leaders of the Islamic society prayed for her and her principal's victory. She described the controversy surrounding the INEC list and the jubilation by the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) as clear signs of panic over an imminent defeat, stating that the omission was unintended and expressing confidence in INEC Chairman Prof. Joash Amupitan.
