Olajide Adediran, the 2023 governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State, expressed his disappointment with the party at the national level.
In an interview on Channels TV’s Politics Today, Jandor explained that he believed he would have won the governorship election in Lagos if not for the influence of Peter Obi in the state.
On Monday, Adediran resigned from the PDP, along with his supporters from all 20 local governments and 37 local council areas in Lagos State.

He said, “I was disappointed by the PDP at the national level. Let me tell you what happened on the eve of the election. The state party chairman of PDP in Lagos State issued a release speaking to a forced alliance that never happened saying that we withdrew from the race. It was not fake news. It exactly happened.
“This was done to make sure that we did not go anywhere. And it’s not about me. They did this to Obanikoro and Williams. It was not just about Jandor. What they did was not just because it was Jandor. This has been their trade.”
He mentioned that he had not yet decided which party to join, stating that he would first consult with his supporters before making a decision.
