Ladi Adebutu, a former federal lawmaker and governorship hopeful of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP), has been on a persistent journey towards the Oke-Mosan governorship seat since 2019. His political path has been fraught with challenges, including disappointments and near misses.

Despite these setbacks, Adebutu has demonstrated resilience, likened to a marathon runner who continues despite injuries. Political analysts note that Adebutu has evolved significantly over the years, gaining experience, expanding his political network, and increasing his visibility and influence.
