Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has declared his support for Hon. Ladi Adebutu’s bid to become Ogun State governor in the 2027 election, giving the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) hopeful a major political boost.
The endorsement comes as preparations for the governorship contest gather momentum across the state, with many political observers viewing Obasanjo’s backing as a significant development that could strengthen Adebutu’s campaign and influence the political landscape.
Given Obasanjo’s long-standing influence in Ogun State politics, analysts believe his support could help attract undecided political groups, reshape existing alliances, and galvanize support for Adebutu ahead of the 2027 governorship election.
