The PDP Governorship Candidate for Lagos State, Dr Abdul-Azeez Adediran (a.k.a. Jandor) has refuted the claim that he’s working for the ruling party in the state,the All Progressives Congress.
Jandor said he’s in the race to end the reign of APC in the state which has been rulling since 1999
Adediran made this assertion in Lagos while speaking with news men
He was reacting to speculations that he was planted in PDP by the APC in the state.
It is also being insinuated that Adediran, a former APC chieftain and former leader of Lagos4Lagos Movement, is close to the APC Presidential Candidate, Chief Bola Tinubu.
Refuting the claim,Adeniran said it would be illogical for him to be APC’s mole in PDP and be giving APC ‘headaches’ in his campaigns.
Adediran said that though he was in APC for some years until January 2022, he had not had a one-on-one meeting with Tinubu, who is also a former Governor of the state.
“It might be difficult for anybody to believe that I have never had a one-on-one meeting withAsiwaju Bola Tinubu.
“I have not set my feet on his Bourdillon house. Yes, I was coming from APC, but I have never been elected nor appointed.
“I have only been a consultant on that corridor.”
On the implications of the crisis rocking the PDP at the National level, Adediran said that the party had no problem both at the National and State levels that could affect its fortune in the 2023 elections.
He said that the G-5 PDP govenors were still major stakeholders in the party.
Adediran said: “For those who can take time to do a thorough diagnosis of the situation that is happening within the PDP, we know that PDP has no problem either at the National level or at the State level.
“None of the aggrieved governors is telling party members in there respective states to do otherwise on election day.
“They are major Stakeholders in PDP business in their respective states.”
Adediran also described as false, insinuations that his candidacy was opposed by Chief Olabode George, a former PDP National Deputy Chairman and PDP stalwart in Lagos State.
“Chief Bode George never opposed my candidacy. He is my leader, he wants to see PDPwin Lagos.
“I can assure you, he is on this 100 per cent and we are together.
“We don’t have any issue. As a national leader,”he said.
