Jandor set to rejoin APC today
Olajide Adediran, widely known as Jandor, the 2023 Lagos governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is set to formally announce his defection to the All Progressives Congress (APC) today.
Adediran, who resigned from the PDP two weeks ago, will hold a press conference this morning at his campaign office in Ikeja, Lagos, to declare his return to the ruling party.
His move follows a recent meeting with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in Abuja, where he reportedly informed the president of his decision to rejoin the APC, his former political base.
Jandor’s defection marks a significant political shift in Lagos State, especially after his bid to unseat the APC in the 2023 elections.
A source close to him, had indirectly confirmed The Nation’s enquiry of this move.
