The Obidient Movement has inaugurated its Ogun State executive, marking a major step in consolidating its grassroots structure ahead of the 2027 general elections.
The inauguration took place on Wednesday in Omu Ijebu during the inaugural meeting of Local Government Women Leaders and Youth Leaders from across the state.
Chief Mrs. Wuraola Adeshina emerged as the Obidient State Coordinator for Ogun State, Hon. Itunu Temitayo Abioro got the Deputy State Coordinator position and Hon. Olurebi Sunday as the Secretary.
Adeshina is a seasoned grassroots politician and a pillar of the Obidient Movement in Ogun State.
She is the Otun Iyalode of Elere Onigbenu Kingdom, a former Vice Chairman of the PDP in Abeokuta North LGA, a serial campaign coordinator, and the current State Woman Leader of the NDC. Her extensive experience in mobilising communities and coordinating campaigns at the grassroots level positions her as the ideal leader to drive the Obidient Movement’s agenda in Ogun State.
Also introduced was Hon. Olurebi Sunday, the Secretary of the state executive and the Ogun State Youth Leader of the NDC.
He is an executive secretary to many organisations and brings a structured, administrative process to the movement’s operations.
In her acceptance remarks, Chief Adeshina expressed gratitude for the confidence reposed in her and the team, and reaffirmed her commitment to building a formidable grassroots movement in Ogun State.
“This is a movement of the people, by the people, and for the people. Our task is clear: to organise, to mobilise, and to ensure that every Obidient member in Ogun State has a voice and a role to play,” said Adeshina. “I call on all members across our 20 LGAs and 236 wards to join hands with us as we work towards a better Nigeria.”
Hon. Sunday while speaking emphasised the importance of structure and accountability.
“I am committed to ensuring that our administrative processes are transparent, efficient, and built to last. The movement will be run with discipline and purpose,” he said.
Also speaking, Hon. Abioro, the NDC Senatorial Candidate for Ogun West, who was appointed as the Deputy Coordinator, pledged his full support to the State Coordinator and the movement’s objectives.
“I am here to serve. The Deputy’s role is to support the Coordinator and ensure that our structure reaches every ward. We are one team, and we will win together,” he said.
Hon. Abioro brings extensive political experience to the role, having previously served as State Chairman of the Young Democratic Party (YDP) and the African Democratic Congress (ADC) in Ogun State.
The Obidient Movement continues to consolidate its structure nationwide as it prepares for the 2027 elections, with a focus on youth participation, grassroots mobilisation, and accountable leadership.
