Chief Mrs. Olukemi Adeogun gains APC attention after advocating for rural ward representation for the Ota Constituency 1 Assembly seat in 2027
Olukemi Adeogun Declares ‘Rural Wards’ Turn,’ Emerges Strong Contender for Ota 1 Seat
Chief Mrs. Olukemi Adeogun, Yeyegunwa of Ota Awori Kingdom, has stepped firmly into the 2027 political conversation following a press conference organised by the Rural Wards Frontier Advocacy (RWFA) in Atan, Ota.
The event, held at Ansarudeen Primary School, Atan, is being widely viewed as a strategic moment that has strengthened her profile as a leading aspirant for the Ogun State House of Assembly seat representing Ota Constituency 1.
In a statement issued on Friday, February 13, 2026, by Yeye Media Guru, Adeogun’s media team, and seen by NewsHeadline247, the advocacy engagement was described as a turning point in the push for rural political inclusion.
According to the statement, Adeogun delivered what observers described as a passionate and compelling message centred on equity and representation.
She asserted that “it is the turn of rural wards to be the next Assembly,” a declaration that reportedly resonated strongly with leaders and members of the All Progressives Congress (APC) present at the gathering.
Her firm stance on rural inclusion, combined with her readiness to serve, was said to have earned her significant goodwill within party circles.
“As a woman with a vision for Ota Constituency 1, Chief Mrs. Adeogun’s message struck a chord with the gathering,” the statement read.
“Her emphasis on the need for rural wards to take the reins of power and her readiness to serve have positioned her as a strong contender for the APC ticket.”
The statement further indicated that APC leaders and members have taken note of her growing influence and consistent advocacy for grassroots representation.
Observers say Adeogun’s emergence aligns with broader conversations within Ota about political rotation and inclusivity at the state legislative level.
With momentum building and 2027 gradually approaching, her camp believes she has positioned herself as a formidable contender in what is expected to be a competitive race for Ota Constituency 1.
As political alignments continue to evolve, Adeogun’s rural wards agenda appears set to remain a central talking point in Ota’s pre-2027 political landscape. Read More
