The forum’s organisers and speakers praised Senator Adeola’s visible and wide-reaching impact, noting that his projects and leadership style have benefitted not just Ogun West but other parts of the state. They described him as a credible and competent figure whose track record makes him well-positioned for the 2027 governorship race in Ogun State.

“Our goal is to ensure that Senator Yayi’s message and accomplishments are taken to every household, every ward, and every local government in Ogun,” said Hon. Akano Yaya Kayode, while addressing the gathering.

Participants pledged their readiness to work tirelessly toward the actualisation of Senator Adeola’s gubernatorial ambition, promising to deploy the strength of the grassroots to drive the campaign across all zones of the state.

The successful launch of the Yayi 2027 Forum in Abeokuta South marks a significant milestone in the build-up to the next electoral cycle and reflects growing statewide support for Senator Yayi’s anticipated candidacy.
