Comedian Aderombi Adedayo Martins, popularly known as DeeOne, is selected as the BOOT Party candidate for the Lagos State House of Assembly election in Ibeju-Lekki Constituency I. The announcement is made ahead of the 2027 general polls. The reports identify DeeOne as a well-known comedian and a former Big Brother Naija housemate. They state that he will contest for the constituency seat under the BOOT Party banner.
Premium Times and Vanguard also note the current political representation of the seat. Ibeju-Lekki Constituency I is presently represented in the Lagos State House of Assembly by Fatai Mojeed of the APC, who is described as serving as the Deputy Speaker of the Assembly.
While the outlets focus on DeeOne’s emergence as the party candidate, they do not provide additional details such as campaign plans, dates for the election, or whether the candidate faces any intra-party contests. The key point across the coverage is the BOOT Party’s selection of DeeOne to contest the seat currently held by an APC lawmaker.
