Former Lagos PDP Guber Candidate Jandor Returns To APC

The 2023 Lagos State governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Olajide Adediran, popularly known as Jandor, has announced his return to the All Progressives Congress, APC.

Adediran, along with his supporters, announced this on Monday, March 17, 2025, at a media briefing held at Liberty Place, Adeniyi Jones Street, Ikeja, Lagos.

This is as a result of a closed-door meeting between Jandor and President Bola Tinubu in Aso Rock, Abuja, last week where undisclosed matters were discussed.

Before meeting President Tinubu, Jandor also held talks with several political leaders, including former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, former military President Ibrahim Babangida, former Head of State Gen. Abdulsalami Abubakar and 2023 SDP Presidential Candidate, Adewole Adebayo.

Jandor had resigned from the PDP, citing indiscipline and anti-party activities, betrayal by the party leadership on the eve of the Lagos governorship election and false claims of an alliance that misled PDP supporters into voting for another candidate.
