GenZ in Politics Launches Voter Education in Ogun State

GenZ in Politics, a youth organization, initiated a voter education and grassroots engagement campaign at Lusada Market in Ado-Odo/Ota Local Government Area, Ogun State, urging traders to actively participate in the 2027 electoral process. The campaign, part of the Market-to-Market Engagement Campaign, began on Wednesday and was led by Sunmola Olashile, the Convener of GenZ in Politics and Consultant to the Ogun State Governor.

The initiative aims to enhance political awareness and voter education as preparations for the 2027 general elections intensify. During the engagement, the group also sought support for Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola (Ogun West), known as Yayi, who is pursuing the governorship ticket of the All Progressives Congress, along with other APC candidates.

The campaign emphasized the importance of understanding the voting process, including correct thumbprinting of ballots. Olashile stated that the campaign would create opportunities for citizens, especially young people, to be informed about the electoral process, with further engagements planned across Ogun State.
