Blessing Ufedojo Benyeogor (INEC lists her surname-first as Benyeogor Blessing Ufedojo) is the Young Progressives Party (YPP) candidate for the Federal Capital Territory Senatorial District in the Senate election of 16 January 2027 (INEC final list, 12 September 2026). INEC lists her as a 38-year-old woman whose declared qualifications are the First School Leaving Certificate, a WAEC certificate and a Higher National Diploma (HND). As the party's FCT senatorial candidate she co-signed a YPP FCT statement on 23 August 2026 urging INEC to extend voter registration, and later joined the chapter in condemning the Kuje Area Council chairman's reported "vote APC or leave" remark (ThisDay, 28 August 2026). Details of her 2026 YPP primary, her career and any earlier candidacy or office were not found in public sources as of October 2026.
