Speaking more on the situation In an interview with Daily Independent, the publicity secretary of the PDP said that George does not have a problem with Jandor, however, he is not happy that Funke took what was meant for Rhodes-Vivour.

He said ”The Atona of Oodua, Chief Olabode George is our leader. He will continue to be our leader, he is a respectable leader for that matter. He is also my brother from Lagos Island.

“At no point did Chief Bode George fail to support Jandor, he might have issues with the deputy governorship candidate of our party, but the party has decided, we are moving on as a party. We respect him a lot and having said that, events have overtaken that, we are working with the elders of the party and the leaders of the party and we are all together.”
