Olajide Adediran, also known as Jandor, is the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) 2023 candidate for governor of Lagos State. He claims he can become governor of Lagos without consulting President Bola Tinubu.

Jandor made this claim on Tuesday’s Politics Today show on Channels Television.

In 2022, Jandor quit the All Progressives Congress (APC) with his Lagos4Lagos Movement, a faction inside the ruling party, after beginning his political career with the party.

He became a Lagos gubernatorial contender after joining the PDP prior to the 2023 election.

Babajide Sanwo-Olu of the APC won the governorship after the former PDP candidate lost and was re-elected.

Jandor left the PDP recently after claiming that certain party officials were undermining him.

“We were waiting to see if the party at the national level governed by the constitution of the party would look into the provisions of that constitution and say that for engaging in anti-party activities openly, this is the sanction.

“We waited patiently for two years to see whether that would happen, instead of that, the same person was appointed Vice Chairman, Disciplinary Committee by the national,” he said.

However, Jandor stated that he would think about joining any of the parties in order to fulfill his dream of becoming governor in 2027.

He stated, “We have chosen this path; we are not deviating. It is only God that can determine who and when. This is the path that we have chosen.”

Jandor also stated that he has not met with Tinubu since he left the APC in 2022.
