Managers of Television Continental (TVC) got more than they bargained for when they invited the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate, Abdulazeez Adediran, popularly known as Jandor, to feature on Your View, a breakfast show of the TV station yesterday.
The All Progressives Congress (APC) presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu, is believed to be the actual owner of TVC, situated at a choice location in the Ketu-Ikosi area of Lagos State.
Tinubu is also believed to be the godfather of Lagos politics, ruling through proxies. Jandor has said he is in the governorship race to dismantle Tinubu’s vice-grip on the state.
The PDP governorship candidate was the guest of TVC yesterday, with four ladies asking the questions and working overtime to restrain him from spilling any beans against their alleged principal, Tinubu.
One of the ladies then dismissed some of the claims made by Jandor against Tinubu as beer parlour talk. This got Jandor to assert his claim by asking the TV presenter if it was morally right to convert a Lagos-owned property to a privately-owned television station.

TVC was established in 2012. In 2005, a directive was given to the management of Lagos State Polytechnic to relocate from the Ikosi campus to its permanent campus at Ikorodu. TVC became the occupant of that property.
