2027: Cleric Adejola Declares House Of Reps Ambition

A cleric  and convener of the GB IRORUN Movement, Pastor Babagbemi  Adejola, has declared his intention  to contest for Yagba Federal Constituency seat in the House of Representatives come 2027.

He made his intention known during the unveiling of the GB IRORUN Movement, a high-level convergence of political stakeholders, technocrats, grassroots mobilizers, and friends in Abuja.

Adejola said his aspiration is driven by a deep commitment to people-oriented representation, inclusive governance, and the advancement of socio-economic prosperity across Yagba land.

“I stand before you today not only to mark another year in my life, but to rededicate myself to a higher calling, the call to serve, to unite, and to lead our people into a new chapter of progress,” he said.

He described the current political moment as one that demands visionary leadership rooted in compassion, competence, and courage, adding that GB IRORUN is not just a slogan but a comprehensive agenda for reform and empowerment.

“My ambition is not about self or position; it is about the people. It is about the silent farmers in Mopamuro, the resilient traders in Yagba East, the struggling students, and the forgotten elderly in Yagba West. It is about giving every Yagba son and daughter a fair voice and an open door,” he said.

Adejola  said the GB IRORUN Movement will serve as a platform for mobilising credible ideas, harnessing community strength, and building coalitions that prioritise equity and impact.

He  noted that his experience in pastoral leadership, public and private sectors, civic engagement, and political mentorship has prepared him to navigate the national legislature with depth and direction.

“I believe in servant leadership, one that listens, one that learns, and one that leads from among, not above. The House of Representatives must be more than a title; it must be a tool for transformation,” he said.
