Ogun 2027 Governorship: All 13 Tickets
INEC's final list names 13 governor candidates and 13 running mates. Each pair is one ticket. This guide covers the Ogun governorship contest on 6 February 2027. It does not establish your complete ballot: presidential, Senate, House and State Assembly contests need separate checks.
Names, ages and qualifications below are reproduced as listed by INEC, including abbreviations. An age is the document's stated age, not a calculation of someone's age today. A missing qualification means the cell was blank; it does not establish a lack of education. The list does not by itself verify a candidate's achievements or promises.
Choose two governorship candidates from this contest. Records may have gaps: no documented action or position here is a coverage gap, not a judgment about the candidate. You can return to your voting plan at any time.
