Olajide Adediran, also known as Jandor, the 2023 Lagos governorship candidate for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is expected to defect to the All Progressives Congress (APC) today.
This move comes two weeks after Jandor announced his resignation from the PDP.
Jandor is scheduled to hold a press conference at his campaign office in Ikeja, Lagos, to officially announce his return to the APC.
Prior to his resignation, Jandor had met with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu in Abuja to inform him of his decision to rejoin his former party.
Jandor’s defection is seen as a significant move, given his previous role as a member of the ruling party in Lagos State.
The reasons behind his decision to leave the PDP and rejoin the APC are not yet clear, but sources close to him have confirmed the move.
