2027: Igbomina Leaders Make Case For Kwara South Senate Seat

In a powerful display of unity, the people of.Igbomina have boldly declared their intention to produce the next Senator for Kwara South in the 2027 elections, arguing that political equity and justice are long overdue.

The demand was made made at a summit convened by the apex socio-cultural organization, Omo Ibile Igbomina, themed “IGBOMINA LOKAN FOR KWARA SOUTH SENATE 2027.” The gathering brought together Royal Fathers, political leaders, religious leaders, and the Council of Elders.

In his opening address, Chief Solo Olaoye, Chairman of the Igbomina Council of Elders, while clarifying the group’s apolitical nature, stressed the necessity of political engagement. “Omo Ibile Igbomina does not discourage its members from seeking political advantage through any political party of their choice,” he stated, framing the summit as a solution to a “brewing political problem.”

A detailed position paper presented at the event laid out a compelling case based on historical data. It revealed a stark imbalance in senatorial representation since 1999 among Kwara South’s three blocs: Igbomina, Ibolo, and Ekiti, whilst being the bloc with largest landmass and constituting a significant population and voters base.

According to the data, by 2027, the Ibolo and Ekiti blocs would have each held the seat for 12 years, while the Igbomina bloc, in contrast, has held it for only one term of four years (1999-2003), meaning that Igbomina people would have been excluded from the Senate for 24 consecutive years.

The summit argued that zoning the 2027 ticket to Igbomina is a matter of “rotational equity,” essential for correcting a historical disparity and fostering a unified political front in Kwara State.

The document concluded with a firm declaration: “Enough is Enough. Let 2027 be the year we champion equity… It is the right thing to do for justice, and the smart thing to do for a united and prosperous Kwara South.”

The meeting proceeded under strict guidelines to ensure constructive dialogue, including a ban on partisan campaigns and abusive language, signaling a strategic and unified push to translate the bloc’s demographic strength into political representation.
