The 2023 governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dr. Abdul-Azeez Adediran, popularly called ‘Jandor’, has justified why he returned to his former political family.

Adediran, with some of his supporters under the guise of Lagos4Lagos, had during the 2023 electioneering campaign defected to the PDP. He contested on its platform and emerged a distant third.

Intrigues trailed his performance and they culminated in his resignation from the party on March 3.

‘Jandor’ recalled his journey into PDP, saying he decided to go back to APC as a reflection of his commitment to the progress of Lagos State and his belief that unity among the progressives was essential to achieving the collective aspirations of the people.
