INEC Omits Ladi Adebutu and Running Mate from Ogun List
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has released its final list of candidates for the 2027 Ogun State governorship election, which notably excludes the names of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate, Ladi Adebutu, and his deputy, Alhaja Yemi Sowunmi-Kolapo. This official document, published on a Saturday, includes candidates from thirteen political parties, with the PDP being the only exception.
INEC has not provided a specific reason for the omission of the PDP candidates' names. If this situation is not rectified, the PDP will lack both a governorship candidate and a deputy on INEC's final list for Ogun State.
Architect Kayode Adebayo, the party’s State Publicity Secretary, stated that the party has not yet confirmed the report and is unable to comment further at this time.
