Youths under the banner of the Ogun East Youth Forum for OGD’27 (OGEYFO) have launched a strong voter sensitisation campaign, urging residents of the district to recognise their Permanent Voter’s Card (PVC) as the ultimate power to shape their political and economic future.
In a statement released after a weekend mobilization drive, the group described the voter’s card as “the most potent weapon in a democracy, and the strongest means to bring change without violence.”
According to the forum, many young people often underestimate their political relevance, forgetting that their collective strength at the ballot box could determine the leadership direction of the state in 2027.
“Your vote is not just a right. It is your power and your voice. Without your voter’s card, your dreams, hopes, and future remain at the mercy of others. The future we all desire can only be built by the choices we make today,” the statement read.
The forum stressed that the ongoing awareness drive is not just about civic education but also about mobilizing support for the political vision of Otunba Gbenga Daniel (OGD), whom they described as the most experienced and people-oriented leader fit to drive Ogun to greater heights in 2027.
They further urged all eligible voters, especially youths in Ogun East, to register, collect, and safeguard their PVCs ahead of the elections.
“Register for your voter’s card. Keep it safe. Come out and vote when the time comes. Your card, your choice, your future,” the forum emphasized.
The statement concluded with a rallying call:
“OGUN EAST YOUTH FORUM FOR OGD’27… OGEYFO!!!”
With political momentum gradually building ahead of the 2027 elections, observers note that OGD’s influence in Ogun politics remains strong, and with youth groups like OGEYFO spearheading mobilisation, his chances of reclaiming the state’s leadership position may gain further traction.
