The Ogun State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has reaffirmed Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola, popularly known as Yayi, as its duly recognised candidate for the 2027 governorship election.
The party made this known in a statement signed by its state chairman, Chief Yemi Sanusi, on Sunday, following claims by Abayomi Semako Hunye that he was the party’s governorship candidate for the election.
The APC said Adeola emerged from its governorship primary with 304,055 votes out of the 305,287 accredited voters who participated in the exercise.
Following his emergence, Adeola selected Mrs Kudirat Abiodun Adegunwa-Balogun as his running mate, with the party subsequently submitting their names to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) as its governorship candidate and deputy candidate for the 2027 election.

“For the avoidance of doubt, the Ogun State APC wishes to state clearly that Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola, popularly known as Yayi, is the duly recognised governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress in Ogun State for the 2027 election,” the statement said.
The party dissociated itself from any contrary claim or declaration by Hunye or any other individual purporting to be its governorship candidate.
The Ogun APC urged its members, supporters and the general public to disregard such claims and rely only on official communications from the party and relevant electoral authorities.
“Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola (YAYI) is the APC candidate for the 2027 Ogun State governorship election,” the statement added.
