As the 2027 Presidential elections beckons, High Chief Godfrey Omoarebu Ogbeide, MBA, MSBA, has been appointed Deputy Zonal Coordinator for Grassroots Engagement and Mobilisation, South-South I, in the All Progressives Congress (APC) 2027 Presidential Campaign Council.

The appointment adds a new responsibility to Ogbeide’s existing leadership roles, which include Secretariat Director of Youth Structure 4 Asiwaju (YS4A) — Asiwaju Boys and Girls — and Zonal Coordinator of Policy and Strategy for the South-South region of the City Boy Movement.

Ogbeide is the Founder and Chairman of The Omoarebu Ogbeide Foundation (TOOF®) and the Aigbugbakheini I of Ozalla Kingdom in Owan West Local Government Area of Edo State.

His new assignment centres on grassroots engagement, stakeholder collaboration and mobilisation, with a focus on coordinating community-level participation in support of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s

2027 re-election campaign.

In the role, he is expected to work with campaign officials, party stakeholders and local mobilisation structures to facilitate coordination and implement the campaign council’s grassroots engagement objectives across the South-South.

His appointment comes against the backdrop of his involvement in youth organisation, policy coordination and strategic planning through his existing positions in YS4A and the City Boy Movement.

Beyond his organisational roles, Ogbeide has pursued community development and social impact initiatives through TOOF®, which he founded to support interventions aimed at improving lives and promoting community advancement.

His latest appointment places him within the South-South campaign structure, with responsibilities focused on connecting the campaign’s broader objectives with grassroots networks and community stakeholders.

The appointments mark an expansion of Ogbeide’s responsibilities across political organisation, policy coordination and grassroots mobilisation ahead of the 2027 presidential election.
