IMG-20260913-WA0010

The 2027 governorship campaign of Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola, popularly known as Yayi, has received a boost with the appointment of Federal Commissioner representing Ogun State on the Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC), Hon. Akeem Akintayo Amosun, as Deputy Director for Ogun Central Senatorial District.

Amosun is among the 74 members appointed to the campaign council to drive the Yayi governorship project across Ogun State ahead of the 2027 election.

His appointment places him at the heart of the campaign’s mobilisation structure in Ogun Central, where he is expected to coordinate grassroots engagement, strengthen existing political structures and work with stakeholders to broaden support for Senator Adeola.

The development is also being viewed by political observers within the Yayi camp as recognition of Amosun’s growing role in grassroots mobilisation and political organisation across the senatorial district.

Over the past several months, Amosun has been actively involved in political engagements across Ogun Central, particularly in Abeokuta South and adjoining areas. He has participated in the mobilisation of coordinators and grassroots supporters while maintaining engagements with party members, community leaders, youths and other stakeholders.

His approach has largely centred on sustained grassroots contact and the strengthening of political structures beyond major campaign events.

Through various empowerment initiatives, educational interventions, grassroots meetings and support programmes, Amosun has also maintained a network of engagement with members of his political constituency.

The new responsibility is therefore expected to provide him with a broader platform to deploy his organisational experience as the Yayi campaign intensifies its mobilisation ahead of the 2027 governorship election.

Political activities surrounding the 2027 Ogun governorship race have continued to gather momentum, with aspirants and their supporters increasingly focusing on grassroots organisation, stakeholder engagement and the consolidation of support across the state’s three senatorial districts.

For the Yayi campaign, the inclusion of Amosun in a senior position for Ogun Central is expected to strengthen its coordination in a district regarded as critical to the overall campaign strategy.

As Deputy Director, Amosun will work alongside other members of the campaign council and local coordinators to deepen grassroots mobilisation and build broader support for Senator Adeola’s ambition to succeed as Governor of Ogun State in 2027.
