Iyabo Obasanjo Confident for Ogun APC Governorship Ticket

Iyabo Obasanjo, a governorship aspirant for the Ogun APC, stated in an interview that her popularity will help her secure the party's ticket for the 2027 elections. She highlighted her grassroots support and past performance in public office, particularly during her tenure as a senator, where she was noted for her effectiveness.

Obasanjo mentioned that the party is considering a consensus arrangement for candidate selection, which she believes will favor candidates with broad appeal and electoral strength. She argued that a consensus does not mean ignoring the will of the people, as the party aims to avoid selecting unpopular candidates.

Obasanjo's approach reflects her belief that the party should prioritize winning elections over financial inducements, asserting that her support base is rooted in her performance rather than monetary influence.
