~ INEC voter registration continues as parties intensify consultations ahead of 2027 elections
Political activities are expected to intensify across Ogun State on Saturday, May 16, 2026, as the All Progressives Congress (APC)conducts its House of Representatives primary elections in preparation for the 2027 General Elections.
The primaries form part of the party’s ongoing internal processes aimed at finalising candidates for key legislative positions ahead of the next electoral cycle.
Party stakeholders, aspirants, and loyalists across the state are expected to converge in various federal constituencies for the exercise, which political observers describe as another critical phase in shaping Ogun’s evolving political landscape.
Saturday’s primaries come amid heightened political consultations and alignments within the Ogun APC following the emergence of Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola as the party’s consensus governorship candidate for the 2027 election.
The development has continued to generate political discussions across party structures, especially as leaders and stakeholders work toward consolidating support and maintaining internal cohesion ahead of the polls.
Premier World News reports that consultations, strategic meetings, and coalition-building efforts have intensified in recent weeks, with party leaders seeking to stabilise the political atmosphere after the consensus arrangement.
Meanwhile, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) is continuing the third and final phase of the Continuous Voter Registration (CVR) exercise across Ogun State and other parts of the country.
The registration exercise, which began on May 11, is expected to run until July 10, 2026, featuring both online pre-registration and physical registration at designated INEC offices nationwide.
Eligible voters, particularly first-time registrants and citizens seeking transfer or correction of voter information, have been encouraged to take advantage of the exercise before the deadline.
Premier World News reports that the convergence of party primaries, stakeholder engagements and voter registration activities signals the gradual acceleration of political momentum ahead of the 2027 elections in Ogun State.
With major political actors consolidating structures and parties intensifying grassroots mobilisation, the coming weeks are expected to shape the direction of both intra-party dynamics and broader electoral strategies.
Premier World News will continue to monitor developments surrounding the APC primaries, INEC activities and wider political engagements across Ogun State and beyond.
