You won't rest on the westerner's choice. If you have your central candidate, present it and stop hiding behind a finger. The sky is big enough for everybody to project his candidate.
No to Yayi. It's as simple as ABC

You Dey talk Ogun West, East, Central bla bla bla angry

Was it Ogun East turn when Dapo snatched the seat even though he was unpopular

Whoever APC presents is going to be the next governor and that is Yayi whether you like it or not
We don't have short memory here. When Amosun presented Akinlande from Ogun West as his successor before completing his second term, why did GNI from same Ogun West contest?

So which turn are you talking about?

You rate yourself too high lol

He will not get involved in his Son-in-law when the plan has been in motion since the days of SIA
PA to Tinubu and Yayi, how you dey

I don't know about other regions I. Ogun state oo, but you see the Ogun central, it's the people that can tell president Tinubu what they want to do, not that president can tell them what to do. If their opinions merged, that's a different scenario

I hope he was not contesting to spite Tinubu back then cheesy cheesy cheesy
Hahaha, Bankole stepped down for president Tinubu including Amosun. There must be a reason for contesting in the first place

Note I said in the first post that I am not a fan of his…..just stating the politics, not whether he will be a good governor.

Politically, he is popular in Ogun west, to understand why, you would have to ask Ogun west people. I don’t know what he does. I don’t like him, I don’t like the way he carries himself, I just have a negative feel about him. He gives me bad vibes.

But without him Dapo would not be governor.
Bro, there is no sense in him contesting Ogun state governor. This same man represented Lagos senatorial district for almost a decade if not more. He didn't remember about Ogun state when he was representing Lagos state?

If he truly care about Ogun state he would have switched long time as he's currently representing Ogun West senatorial district.

What an insult to the people the state.

He should go and govern where he represented for a decade. What rubbish

Since he crossed year 2023 one can cut him some slack over his senatorial district because he cannot be a senator in Lagos and be spending it on Ogun West cheesy cheesy cheesy
Spending? Nobody is expecting him to spend anything. Just oversight the federal government projects in the areas he claimed he cared about.

Lagos- Ibadan express way is another re awarded contract which is still yet to be done properly.

Alright, we see how they align this time around.i haven't seen the hands of Amosun yet.
Bankole might be the one behind the Egba meeting lately. I don't have any information yet

You know he deliberately contested the Apc presidential primary and stepped down.

He crossed over to contest Ogun gov

Lagos gov had never been on the cards for him. The reason he remained a Lagos senator was because Amosun was not ready to entertain him in Ogun in any form. It’s only when Amosun left office that he was able to cross over. The senate seat was his reward for helping Dapo in 2019.

Amosun never gave him the senate ticket.
So if he indeed had Ogun people at heart, how come they have not been seeing his hand when he was representing Lagos state?

If he indeed care about his own people from Ogun West, why is the Sango Ota road still in dilapidated. Even though his duty is not to build the road but to oversight. The road contract have been awarded severally, what has he Yayi been oversighting? Why has he refused to speak up on what he observed from his oversighting except if he had a share

I don't know of YAYI has served Ogun state in any capacity before?
No, he hasn't before just in 2023. He cross over to Ogun state to contest the senatorial seat when he realized his chances of becoming Lagos state governor is not there.

Before then, what has he done for the people of Ogun West not to talk of Ogun state people entirely? It's like he's taking the people from the state as mumu.

Sango Ota road have been in dilapidated state for decades. What's his role as a senator if not to oversight the projects in his constituency, state and beyond . The contract for that road have been awarded severally with nothing tangible done..What has he been oversighting?

That's why I am saying that Ogun West get power too. Akinlade polled 222k votes, GNI 110k plus vote. That combined, Akinlade takes it 2019.
Because both was supported/influenced by Ogun central people. If Egba and Yewa /Awori present a governorship candidate in 2027, Ogun central candidate will win in Ogun West because apart from them in OW not united, it's the Ogun central people that control the politics of Ogun West

Interesting times ahead
Ogun central people dont like recycling of politicians. That's one of the factors that will work against Yayi.

Whether senator, House of reps or state assembly members, maximum serving term is 2 terms. Even local government chairman self.

I agree based on that outburst and the appeal he had to make running up to the election in 2023 +.

Going by what happened in 2019, Dapo was almost of not a goner until Tinubu stepped in. You remember they almost embarrass Buhari that day.
Amosun made Tinubu to get involved as he Amosun refused to listen to Osoba. Osoba have family tie with Ijebu even though he's an Egba. That's what brought Dapo into the picture

These politicians do not ever learn. At the moment Yayi is even more popular than the sitting governor. Popular in all corners of the state and especially among the non-yorubas which is a significant voting block. He has a solid structure and has been spending money long before now. Only God and TINUBU can stop him.
The spectators don't have a clue about Ogun. Politics. Let Yayi win Apc party ticket first

From the above, why did Akinlade lost out to Dapo Abiodun?
Because GNI was also on the ballot which divided the Ogun West votes

Can you share the reasons why Tinubu won't get himself involved?
Because Ogun state is the most respected states by president Tinubu amongst all the states in Nigeria. The outburst before the election all happened in the state.

Those who view Ogun politics from afar don't know how complicated and sophisticated the state is

President, Vice president, Speaker, major political position under democracy, no state in Nigeria is close to Ogun state

The only thing working against Yayi is because he's perceived not to be originally from Ogun in some quarters.

The Gov isn't as strong and influential politically as OGD and Amosun to be able to unilaterally decide against Yayi

His best bet is to align with the Egba's to produce a candidate for the APC else, he'll lose at both ends.

Will GNI return to the mix? 2026 is pregnant.
If the Egba's insist on presenting candidate, Yayi should just forget about it as Owu will also come on board making Ogun central to be completed.

Ijebu/Remo's votes have always been divided into 3

Ogun East always have 2 factions, Gbenga Daniel and Dapo Abiodun. Ijebu's politics only align with one of the Remo's faction. One of Remo faction always align with Ogun Central

Ogun politics. If YAYI don't fall out of favor with Tinubu. You bet YAYI is nailed on to take over from the current governor.

The federal power used in installing Dapo Abiodun (Eleyi as stated by President Tinubu) as governor will be used to install YAYI.
President Tinubu will not intervene in the Ogun politics in 2027. It get why
PoliticsRe: Ogun 2027: Will Lightning Strike A Third Time? by helinues: 7:57am On Dec 22, 2025
If Yayi is the candidate the Ogun West people will be presenting in 2027, they should forget about it

Ogun West are minority in Ogun state politics. Infact, it's Ogun central people that command the politics of the area. Find better candidate apart from Yayi or loose out

Lol
My camp in 2027 is a free and fair election. Whether votes are bought ooo, or whatever. As long as Nigerians are allowed to vote and their vote counted

I have said it a thousand times, I have passed that level of being very passionate about who becomes the president. I will rather that those who suffer most from evil policies to make their choice.. while I keep saying "was it not you guys that voted him?"

This person is not serious at all. You think too highly of these so called career ladies. So these career ladies you mentioned do not entertain different men in their apartments and have sex with them? Or these your career ladies don't go to visit different men at nights and have sex with them? What exactly are you smoking? Why do you not see the ladies responding? Or you think they are not aware of the truth?
Don't shift from the narration with your quarter cleverness. You claimed any lady living alone is either doing prostitution at home or outside. Sex is different from prostitution
