The Lagos State 2023 Governorship Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dr. Abdul-Azeez Adediran, popularly known as Jandor, has restated his ambition to become the next governor of Lagos, saying his goal is to promote inclusive governance and development across the state.
Speaking in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria on Sunday, the Lead Visioner of the Lagos4Lagos Movement explained that his aspiration goes beyond personal ambition, emphasizing that it is driven by a shared vision for the future of Lagos.
“It is about stewardship, about building a Lagos where opportunity, innovation, and prosperity are accessible to all,” jandor said.
He noted that his bid for the governorship is aimed at deepening accountability, transparency, and effective service delivery, adding that he remains a firm believer in party supremacy and will respect whatever decision the All Progressives Congress (APC) makes ahead of the 2027 elections.
According to him, his team will continue to work hard to ensure the APC not only secures electoral success but also delivers meaningful governance to the people of Lagos.
“Today, we are in APC and we are happy to return home where we belong. In 2023, I ran for the topmost office in the state.
“I was on the ballot, not an accidental candidate. I picked the ticket to be governor in 2023 of a major political party, which is the PDP, and we have not departed from that path.
“I am also here in APC to continue where we stopped. I am running. I’m running in 2027 for governorship in Lagos state.
“We will subject ourselves to the internal democracy of the party in APC, and whatever the party decides, we’re going to work for the party. I am running for governor of Lagos state in 2027 under APC,” jandor added.
