BREAKING: Jandor returns to APC, gives reasons

PDP guber candidate, Jandor

The Governorship Candidate of Lagos State chapter of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 General Election, Dr. AbdulAzeez Adediran aka JANDOR, has announced his return to the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), saying that his resolve was based on joining a political party that considers winning for its members as top priority, not minding who is on the ballot.

Recall that JANDOR left the APC for PDP close to the 2023 General Election to clinch the party’s governorship ticket.

JANDOR made his decision known on Monday at a press conference, which he addressed at his office in Ikeja, saying that he had no regrets joining the PDP which he had since dumped for APC, but quickly recalled a popular Yoruba adage which “says if a woman has not tried two husbands, she probably would not know which is better.”

The former PDP governorship candidate, however, said he took the final decision after extensive consultations with his “family, political associates, elder statesmen, supporters, and well- meaning Lagosian who shared his vision for greater and more prosperous Lagos, and in identifying that the primary reason a political party exists is to win elections and ultimately form the government to contribute to the welfare, security and total development of the people.”

“Our return to APC is not a decision made lightly. It is a reflection of our unwavering commitment to the progress of Lagos State and our belief that unity among progressive is essential to achieving the collective aspirations of our people,” he said.

“Before this press conference, I had reached out to the leadership of the APC, both at the state and national levels, and I can tell you, their reactions have been so welcoming. Let me assure Mr. President of our readiness to contribute our experience, vision, and energy to the ongoing work of making Nigeria of opportunities, growth and inclusive development,” he added.
