Barely 48 hours after his dramatic exit from the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), Abdul-Azeez Adediran, the party’s 2023 Lagos State governorship candidate, has become the center of a desperate reconciliation effort by top party leaders.
On Wednesday, a high-profile delegation led by PDP National Secretary Ude Okoye paid a visit to Adediran at his Abuja office, pleading with him to reconsider his decision and return to the party fold.
Adediran, popularly known as Jandor and the leader of the Lagos4Lagos Movement, announced his resignation from the PDP on Monday, citing deep-seated betrayal and a lack of internal discipline. The move sent shockwaves through the party’s Lagos chapter, where Adediran had built a grassroots following.
