Popular politician Oladipupo Adebutu is forging stronger ties with his statewide support base.
The face of the main opposition party in Ogun State, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), has doled out yuletide gifts that are sparking conversations about his activities.
On the menu of packages to help his supporters celebrate Christmas are 7,000 birds (turkeys and chickens), 100 cows, 300 pigs, cash, food items, and related goods.
The gubernatorial candidate of the PDP, who suffered a near-win in the 2023 Ogun State gubernatorial election—losing by less than 14,000 votes to Governor Dapo Abiodun of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for a second term—began distributing the gifts to his loyalists this week.
This gesture is one of many that have helped him retain his status as one of the key figures behind the four formidable political structures in Ogun State.
Talk across political circles confirms he is planning another bid for the Ogun State gubernatorial seat in the next general election, earmarked for 2027.
