The Lagos State chapter of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP0 has stated that it does not regret the departure of its 2023 governorship candidate Dr. Abdul-Azeez Adediran popularly known as Jandor who recently defected to the All Progress Congress (APC).
Stat PDP Vice Chairman (Central), Hakeem Olalemi made this remark while responding to Jandor’s return to the APC on Monday.
Olalemi, who was not surprised by Adediran’s exit from PDP, claimed that the former governorship candidate had infiltrated the party with the intention of undermining and destabilizing it in the state.
“He (Adediran) is a human being and the Nigerian Constitution allows freedom of associations. He is free to resign from any group or party and join any group he wants.
“We will miss his shenanigans, comedy and cunningness. So, we will not miss anything good about him in the party because he has done a huge havoc to our party in Lagos State.
“He has come to our party to spy and he ruined the party.
“We are assuring the public that we are going to pick up the party from where it is now and take it to its Eldorado come 2027 by the special grace of God,” Olalemi said.
