Tinubu: I Have Not Set Foot On His Bourdillon Residence – Jandor Speaks On Being An APC Mole
The Governorship Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State, Dr Abdul-Azeez Adediran also known as Jandor, has reacted to reports that he was planted in the party by the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Jandor, during an interview with newsmen in Lagos, stated that contrary to reports, he is not a mole but committed to ending the reign of the APC in Lagos Strate.
There are reports that Jandor, who is a former chieftain of the APC, is a close associate of Bola Tinubu.
Jandor, however, argued that it would be illogical to be a mole whilst also giving the ruling party ‘headaches’ in his campaigns.
Adediran said that though he was in the APC for some years until January 2022, he never had a personal meeting with Tinubu.
The candidate said: “It might be difficult for anybody to believe that I have never had a one-on-one meeting with Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.
“I have not set my feet on his Bourdillon house. Yes, I was coming from APC, but I have never been elected nor appointed.
“I have only been a consultant on that corridor.”
Speaking on the crisis rocking the PDP, Jandor insisted that the party has no problem both at the national and state levels that could affect its fortune in the 2023 elections.
He said that the G-5 PDP Govenors were still major stakeholders in the party.
Adediran said: “For those who can take time to do a thorough diagnosis of the situation that is happening within the PDP, we know that PDP has no problem either at the national level or at the state level.
“None of the aggrieved governors is telling party members in their respective states to do otherwise on election day.
“They are major stakeholders in PDP business in their respective states.”
He also stated that report of his candidacy being opposed by Chief Olabode George, a former PDP National Deputy Chairman, is false
According to him, “Chief Bode George never opposed my candidacy. He is my leader, he wants to see PDP win Lagos.
“I can assure you, he is on this 100 percent and we are together.
“We don’t have any issue. As a national leader.”
