Ogun Governorship Aspirant Adeola Faces Questions Over Company Records and Identity Claim
A report has raised questions about corporate records linked to Senator Solomon Olamilekan Adeola, popularly known as Yayi, and claims made about his professional background ahead of the 2027 Ogun governorship race. The report says Sootem Nigeria Limited, which Adeola’s biography describes as a tax consultancy, is listed on a company-information platform as being involved in photography services. It also notes that names associated with the company include several people bearing the surname Ogunleye. Former Ijebu East council chairman Wale Adedayo has claimed that Adeola was originally known as Sulaimon Ogunleye and challenged his Ogun ancestry. Adeola’s camp has dismissed the allegation as a political distraction. The report acknowledges that Ogunleye appears in Adeola’s documented family history and says the available records alone do not prove any wrongdoing or establish the identity claim. The central issue is whether Adeola or his campaign will provide verified Corporate Affairs Commission records and clarify the reported difference between the company’s stated activity and his public biography.
