The Lagos State Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate, Dr. Abdul-Azeez Adediran, better known as Jandor, on Sunday, slammed former Aviation Minister, Femi Fani-Kayode a.k.a FFK, after saying he is no match for Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu in 2023.
FFK, who is the Director of the Special Media Projects of the Tinubu/Shettima Presidential Campaign Council, had in a statement, said the PDP guber aspirant is ‘mentally challenged’ if he thinks he can defeat the incumbent, Babajide Sanwo-Olu
His statement read in part, “If the strange young man with the equally strange name of “Jandor” honestly believes he has a hope in hell of defeating Babajide Sanwo-Olu in next year’s governorship election in Lagos State, then he must be seriously ill and/or mentally challenged.”
Reacting to Fani-Kayode’s assertion via his Twitter handle, Adediran said for any attack the former minister had launched against a politician, government official and others in the past, there is a corresponding statement where he contradicted himself by praising the same person.

Jandor went on to say FFK, who is currently attacking him, will soon begin to sing his praises once he emerges as the winner of the gubernatorial election
He said, “Femi Fani-Kayode’s personal life has more than enough scandal to discredit him, but out of respect for many, who have been harmed by his actions especially women and his employees, we will stick to his political career.
“For every attack that Femi Fani-Kayode has launched against a politician, government official or political party, there is a corresponding statement where he contradicts himself with praises said to the person, official or political party.
“The moment you are able to sprinkle little corn for the fowl, Fani Kayode goes back on his words without remorse and betrays his closest associates.
“This is consistent across his entire political career and affirms what we all know, that he is a man who is motivated only by personal gain and will go anywhere, and say anything provided it gives him proximity to power and takes care of his stomach.
“It is only a matter of time, his attention would turn positively to Jandor the moment we take over the Lagos House, which we will certainly do by May 29, 2023…just wait and see.”
The PDP candidate described FFK’s attack as proof that APC is frightened that its hold on Lagos has weakened and that it’s now grasping at whatever straws to hold on to power.
“If anything, this attempt at character assassination, barely one week after our convoy was attacked by sponsored thugs and 48 hours after fake news was leaked to the press that 5,000 Jandor members decamped to the All Progressives Congress, proves what we already knew; the APC is frightened that its hold on Lagos has weakened and grasping at whatever straws to hold on to power.
“We will win at the polls next year and I am very sure Fani Kayode will come begging for a spokesperson job as he can’t survive outside the corridors of government, and guess what, we will engage him,” Adediran added.
