Governorship candidate of the PDP in Lagos, Abdul-Azeez Adediran aka Jandor, on Tuesday unveiled his wife, Mariam Adediran, to members of the PDP family in the state.
Adediran’s wife, who is based in the USA, had not been featuring in the political activities of her husband since the 2023 electioneering began.
This prompted rumour of cracks in the 45-year-old’s marriage.
At an interactive session with PDP women and leaders in Lagos State, Mrs Adediran said that those following her husband would not work in vain, as the candidate remained passionate about quality life for all including women and children.
Adediran, who was full of smiles and excited with the mammoth crowd which received her, assured them that life would be better with PDP at the helm of affairs in the state.
Jandor’s wife berated politicians sponsoring campaign of calumny on social media against her family and her husband because she was not with him.
According to her, she has been part of her husband’s political movement and has always supported him even from her abode in the US
“I have been part of this movement and we, my husband and I, agreed that he would be in Nigeria to drive the movement while I will be in the USA with the children.
“It is disheartening what people do in the name of politics on the social media. I am not a social media person but I read everything they put up there,” she said.

Lauding women for supporting her husband’s vision for a better Lagos, Mrs Adediran said that though a lot had been done, much more could still be achieved before the end of campaigns.
“I love you and even though the election is a few days from today, we still have so much to do together and I know that God will grant our efforts with success.
“I do see everything that you all are doing. I see all of your movements and engagements as well as your efforts to help this movement. I sincerely say thank you to everyone.
“If anyone is telling you that you are working in vain, tell them you are not because you can see the movement growing and you have been focused.
“This movement is just starting, Though you have done a whole lot, but I want to let you know that it is just starting,” she said.
Jandor’s wife, who noted that she had been so passionate about women and children, urged the women to believe in themselves.
Jandor said that with God and the people by his side he would defeat the ruling party.
The event, which took place at the PDP candidate’s campaign office in Ikeja, had in attendance the party’s Deputy Governorship Candidate, Funke Akindele and PDP ex-Board of Trustees member, Aduke Maina.
