An Ogun State governorship aspirant, Iyabo Obasanjo, has suspended her ambition following the emergence of Senator Solomon Adeola, popularly known as Yayi, as the All Progressives Congress consensus candidate for the 2027 election.
Obasanjo, daughter of former President Olusegun Obasanjo, announced the decision in a statement she signed on Monday.
She said her decision followed the adoption of Adeola at a caucus meeting of the party held in Abeokuta.
She said, “I congratulate him and wish him every success. I also thank the state and national leaders of our great party for the opportunity to participate in the nomination process.
“Based on these developments, I have decided to suspend my gubernatorial aspiration.
“To my supporters across Ogun State, I am deeply grateful for your calm, steadfast support and unwavering trust throughout this journey. Together, we move forward with patience, strength and hope.”
Adeola, who represents Ogun West in the Senate, emerged as the party’s consensus candidate at the meeting held at the APC secretariat in Abeokuta.
