A General Election Perception Survey for Ondo North Senatorial District 2027, has projected the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Imole Progressive Network (IPN), Engr. Michael Abayomi Adeyanju, as the most popular candidate in the area.
The survey was
conducted by the Research and Public Opinion Unit of PenPlus Online Media
Publishers (PenPlus Stat Index).
The public opinion
poll which was conducted in the month of February, was to assess voters’
awareness of their elected representatives, perception of their performance,
and early political preferences ahead of the 2027 general elections, across the
three Senatorial Districts (Ondo North, Ondo Central and Ondo South) of Ondo
state.
The outcome of the
survey conducted in Ondo North Senatorial District revealed that Adeyanju
remains the people's choice in the area.
According to the
survey, a total of 12,024 respondents participated in the exercise,
representing a cross-section of residents including farmers, traders, civil
servants, artisans, youths and community stakeholders.
The result of the
survey partly reads: “The survey covered all six Local Government Areas and
seventy-two political wards in the district. A total of 12,024 respondents
participated in the exercise, representing a cross-section of residents
including farmers, traders, civil servants, artisans, youths and community
stakeholders.
“The findings reveal a
very high level of political awareness among voters across the district. All
respondents indicated that they are aware of their current representatives at
the National Assembly, including the incumbent senator and the three members of
the House of Representatives representing the district’s federal
constituencies.
However, the survey
results show contrasting public perceptions regarding the performance of these
representatives.
“A significant 85
percent of respondents rated the performance and impact of the current senator
as “very poor.” Respondents cited limited visibility and insufficient
constituency-level interventions as key concerns influencing this perception.
In contrast, 45
percent of respondents rated the performance of their members of the House of
Representatives as “average.” Across the six LGAs, many respondents pointed to
constituency development projects, accessibility of representatives, and
grassroots engagement as the major factors shaping their positive evaluation.
“In line with this
assessment, 85 percent of respondents expressed dissatisfaction with the
current senatorial representation and indicated a preference for a change in
leadership at the Senate level ahead of the next election cycle.
“The poll also
examined early voter preferences regarding potential aspirants for the 2027
Ondo North senatorial contest.
Among the aspirants
mentioned in the survey, 90 percent of respondents indicated that they
currently favour Engineer Michael Abayomi Adeyanju (a.k.a. Imole) as their
preferred candidate for the senatorial seat.
For the House of
Representatives elections, the survey found an average approval rating for the
incumbents, in other words, the respondents rated the members’ performances as
average.
Overall, the poll
highlights that constituency visibility, grassroots engagement, and tangible
development initiatives remain key determinants of voter approval in Ondo North
Senatorial District.

valuable insights into the current political climate in the district and
emerging voter expectations ahead of the 2027 general election.”

North-East, 10 wards in Akoko North-West and 11 wards in Akoko South-East.
