Former Lagos PDP Governorship Candidate Jandor Returns To APC

Former Lagos PDP Governorship Candidate Jandor has returned to the APC.

Epe Insights reports that the 2023 governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Olajide Adediran, better known as Jandor, has returned to the All Progressives Congress (APC), Nigeria’s ruling political party.

Jandor disclosed this at a press conference in Ikeja, Lagos on Monday, March 17, 2025, where he revealed that he was leaving the PDP with his Lagos4Lagos Movement.

“Our return to APC was not for personal purpose but reflection of our commitment to the development of Lagos”, he added.

The erstwhile Lagos PDP governorship candidate said his decision to return to the APC was driven by his desire to contribute to the progress of Lagos State and his belief that unity among progressives is essential to achieving the collective aspirations of the people.

Jandor explained that his journey in the PDP during the 2023 gubernatorial election was driven by a sincere desire to win for the party and serve the people of Lagos State.

He, however, noted that working within the fold of the APC offers a more viable platform to deliver on his promises of good governance for all Lagosians.

The former PDP candidate also thanked President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the Chief of Staff to the President, Femi Gbajabiamila, and the President’s son, Seyi Tinubu, for their roles in facilitating his return to the APC.

Jandor assured his supporters that his decision was taken with the best interests of Lagos at heart, urging them to join him in embracing this new chapter as they work together to build a Lagos that works for everyone.
