Ogun State gubernatorial candidate Abayomi Hunye, a leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has clarified his motivation for wanting to be governor in 2027.
As he praised his experience in politics and the civil service, he argued for his home senatorial constituency of Ogun West.
He stated that as the zone has never held the office since the state’s founding, it is only right and fair that it provide the next governor. Instead, it has continuously switched between Ogun East and Ogun Central.
When asked his stance on the possibility of him emerging, he confidently stated that “Well, to the best of my ability, I think so. Number one, I’ve been around for quite some time, at least for the past 16 years. My goal is clear and one thing I know is that experience is one of the advantages that I believe I have gained over the years. I’ve tried it several times, though I was not privileged to be there.”

“But I think with that number of years, I’ve been consistent in trying this. Also count on me in terms of performance. Performance is key. I am a performer. I have a track record in the public service. With what I’ve learned in the past, I would be able to do well and serve our good people well.”
Additionally, the APC aspirant spoke about his view on the clamour for a new Ogun state. In his words, ” Yes, that’s better for development. You make it smaller. So, for now, we say it’s very big. We say it’s three times bigger than Lagos State. So, the two states of Ogun will be neighbours to Lagos State. So, even if it is two states that are coming, it is a plus for us.”
While speaking, Hunye sidelined the PDP, adding that those days are gone and further urging residents of the state to forget about the pdp.
