New Awujale Will Emerge Before May 2027, Says Dapo Abiodun

Abiodun said the succession process will be peaceful and widely acceptable as oil exploration and a deep-sea port are expected to drive jobs and investment.

  • On Tuesday, Ogun State Governor Prince Dapo Abiodun held a stakeholders' meeting in Ijebu-Ode, reassuring the people of Ijebuland that a new Awujale will emerge by May 29, 2027.
  • Abiodun emphasized his administration's commitment to facilitating a smooth, peaceful succession process for the traditional stool while showcasing government achievements over the past seven years.
  • The governor declared that Ogun East Senatorial District is on the threshold of significant economic expansion, driven by emerging oil exploration near Eba Island and the proposed Gateway Deep-Sea Port.
  • These projects, alongside the proposed Blue Marine Special Economic Zone, will position Ogun State as a major destination for industrial investment and international trade.
  • Representatives from various groups, including the Council of Baales and Olorituns, commended the engagement platform, noting that direct communication strengthens grassroots development efforts.
