The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate for Lagos State, Abdul-Azeez Adediran, a.k.a. Jandor, has said he has never had a one-on-one meeting with Bola Tinubu, noting that he is not a mole for the All Progressives Congress (APC).
In an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) in Lagos, Jandor said it would be illogical for him to be an APC mole in PDP and be giving APC ‘headaches’ in his campaigns.
“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,” said Jandor.
On the implications of the crisis rocking the PDP at the national level, he said it would not affect its fortune in the 2023 elections.

He said that the G-5 PDP governors were still major stakeholders in the party.
“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 said.
Jandor also described as false, insinuations that his candidacy was opposed by Bode George, a former PDP National Deputy Chairman and PDP stalwart in Lagos State.
