Abdul-Azeez Adediran (Jandor), PDP’s 2023 governorship candidate in Lagos, has dumped the opposition party to return to the All Progressives Congress.
He made this known at a news conference on Monday in Lagos.
Mr Adediran, leader of the Lagos4Lagos Movement, announced his resignation from the PDP on March 3, citing a lack of discipline in the party and betrayal by its leaders. He was previously a member of APC before joining the PDP.
His words,”Our return to the APC is not a decision made lightly. It is a reflection of our unwavering commitment to the progress of Lagos State and our belief that unity among progressives is essential to achieving the collective aspirations of our people.
“We have decided to return to the All Progressives Congress. Before you are quick to remind me of the reasons for which we left APC in the first place, let me respond with a popular Yoruba adage, ’if a woman has not tried two husbands, she probably would not know which is better’.

“In APC, we have a leader, even if you fault his selection choices, you can’t fault his desire to always win for his party to the benefit of all members, followers and the state.
“But in Lagos PDP, you have a leader that, at every election cycle, works against his own party, and wilfully dash the hopes of many party members and followers.
“We have chosen the better alternative. We believe that working within the fold of the APC offers a more viable platform to deliver on our promises of good governance for all Lagosians, even if I am not the one on the ballot.
