Ladi Adebutu Challenges INEC Over Exclusion from Ogun Guber List

Ladi Adebutu, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in Ogun State, has publicly addressed the exclusion of his name from the list of governorship candidates published by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) ahead of the 2027 general elections. INEC released its final list, and Adebutu was notably absent.
He stated that he remains a duly registered PDP member and submitted all required documentation to INEC before the deadline. Adebutu completed his digital membership registration within the stipulated period, and the relevant documents were presented for verification.
He suggested that undue pressure from the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) may have contributed to his omission. Adebutu noted that candidates from other parties appeared on INEC's published lists, making his exclusion particularly concerning.
He indicated that the PDP would pursue the matter through legal channels and urged party members to remain calm while focusing on their campaign slogan, "Ogun for Ogun.".
