A political support group, Ogun Diaspora for YAYI 2027 Support and Campaign Group, has endorsed Solomon Olamilekan Adeola for the Ogun State governorship race ahead of the 2027 general elections.

Speaking on behalf of the group, the Director General of Ogun Diaspora for YAYI 2027 and founder of Youth Mobilisation for Tinubu/Shettima 2023 Campaign Organisation, Ambassador Yemi Soile, described Adeola as a leader with a strong record of people-oriented governance and inclusive development.
