Politics 2027: We’ve never produced Senator or Rep member — Ondo indigenes to Gov Aiyedatiwa Published on April 15, 2026 By Ogaga Ariemu googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1500386953281-8'); }); The Indigenes of Aye Kingdom, Okitipupa/Irene Federal Constituency of Ondo State, have made one demand from Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa ahead of the 2027 general election. In a viral request sent to Gov. Aiyedatiwa recently, the Indigenes of the constituency said it is regrettable that since the state was created on 3 February 1976, it has never produced a senator nor a federal House of Representatives member. Consequently, in a request made by the traditional council of Aye Community and stakeholders led by Oba Williams Akinlade and Chief G. A. Famodu, they urged Gov. Aiyedatiwa to support Bidemi Obayangban’s ambition to represent them in the House of Representatives in the 2027 election. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1524595905268-5'); }); “We humbly urge Your Excellency to use your good office to support our position and ensure that the rightful place of Aye Kingdom is recognized.” Aye Kingdom is one of the largest communities in the constituency, comprising two (2) wards out of the twenty-three (23) wards that make up the federal constituency. However, it is on record that Aye Kingdom has never produced a member of the House of Representatives or a senator since the creation of the constituency. “This situation has led to growing concerns among our people, who feel marginalized despite their contributions to the political growth and electoral success of APC. “We therefore humbly appeal to Your Excellency to use your good office to support our request.” Don't Miss Why Mark-led ADC national convention illegal — Kachikwu You may like Ondo attacks: Aiyedatiwa declares war on gunmen Ondo Attacks: Aiyedatiwa vows action as over 100 suspects arrested Police nab suspected kidnapper, rescue victim in Ondo Two men arrested in Ondo for abducting traffic warden while evading arrest Ondo residents protest, query Aiyedatiwa on security votes amid killings Amotekun parades suspected criminals in Ondo
