Share this article

The CityBoy Movement in Ogun State has reaffirmed its commitment to mobilising two million votes for President Bola Tinubu in the 2027 presidential election, while backing the All Progressives Congress governorship candidate in the state, Senator Adeola Olamilekan, popularly known as Yayi. Solomon Olarewaju, a Special Assistant to the Ogun State Governor and stakeholder of the movement in Ado-Odo Constituency II, commended the group for its grassroots mobilisation and efforts to promote the Tinubu administration’s policies across communities. He said the movement’s growing presence at the grassroots would strengthen political engagement and create more opportunities for young people and other stakeholders to participate in the electoral process.

Olarewaju said members of the movement would intensify their mobilisation across Ogun in pursuit of the two-million-vote target earlier announced by Yayi during the inauguration of the group’s state executives in Abeokuta. He also expressed support for Yayi’s proposed ITESIWAJU agenda and highlighted the APC candidate’s stated emphasis on youth participation. The Ogun chapter of the CityBoy Movement has separately said it recorded more than 150,000 active members within one month of its membership drive and is targeting more than 500,000 verifiable grassroots members before January 2027. The movement’s leadership has also charged its state executives to expand activities across all 20 local government areas as preparations for the 2027 elections continue.
