By Afolabi Oyekunle. Ogun State Governor, Prince Dapo Abiodun, has welcomed members of the Otunba Gbenga Daniel (OGD) political family and the Buruji Kashamu political group into the mainstream of the All Progressives Congress (APC), describing their decision as a significant step towards strengthening the party ahead of the 2027 general elections. Governor Abiodun received the groups at a meeting held at the Presidential Lodge, Abeokuta, where he commended their decision to align with the APC and work together for the success of the party and its candidates across Ogun East Senatorial District.
