APC Disowns Abayomi Hunye as Ogun Governorship Candidate
The All Progressives Congress (APC) has officially disowned Abayomi Hunye, who falsely claims to be the party's Ogun governorship candidate for the 2027 election. Senator Ajibola Basiru, the party’s National Secretary, stated on Monday in Abuja that Senator Adeola Olamilekan is the legitimate candidate.
Hunye was suspended from the APC on April 7, 2026, due to activities deemed injurious to the party's image and anti-party actions, following a petition from his Tube Ward in Ipokia Local Government Area. Basiru emphasized that Hunye's self-declaration as a candidate is unauthorized and misleading.
He reiterated that Olamilekan and his running mate, Balogun Abiodun, were duly nominated and their details uploaded to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) portal. The APC warned that any dealings with Hunye would be at the risk of those involved, as the party would not be liable for any consequences arising from such associations.
