Olusegun Kokumo Agagu ((Listenⓘ); 16 February 1948–13 September 2013) was a Nigerian politician who was governor of Ondo State from 29 May 2003 until February 2009, when a court voided his re-election as governor on account of electoral irregularities. He was replaced as governor by Olusegun Mimiko, the runner-up in the election.[3][4] He was a member of the then ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
