Some members of the All Progressives Congress in wards D and E, in the Badagry West Local Council Development Area of Lagos State, have declared support for the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Dr Abdul-Azeez Adediran, aka Jandor, in the forthcoming election in the state.
“If you serve someone for a time without any profit, it is wise to back out. Our lives and communities have remained the same since we have been serving the APC,” Kuwhede said.
Reacting to the development, Adediran, while appreciating the new members for reposing confidence in his aspiration to lead the state, pledged that their progress in the party won’t be determined by the fact that they just joined. He said, “The PDP that you all just joined is not like where you were coming from which requires that if you just joined, you would be told to meet an elder for endorsement despite the fact that the elder also gets orders from the top to handpick someone.
“The PDP is not like that. If the PDP is like that, I will not join the party in January and get the PDP governorship ticket in May which is not possible in the APC. But because the PDP is a true democratic party, once you join like you all just did today, you have become part of the party and no one would be telling you that because you are new, you still need to queue and wait for your turn.
“Once the PDP becomes in charge of governance in the state in May 2023, we are going to sit and discuss with those who assisted in Badagry West and give some people appointments without saying they just joined the PDP,” he added.All rights reserved.
