The PUNCH reports that Lana stepped down from the race on Tuesday to endorse Makinde of the Peoples Democratic Party.
The SPD chair said, “Does he know what he is doing? He didn’t pay for nomination form. We only packaged him. He didn’t have any input or contribution in the party. He is just a noise-maker. How many of them reached that compromise to endorse Makinde?
