Abdul-Azeez Olajide Adediran, popularly known as Jandor, the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the 2023 general election, was reportedly involved in a secret meeting with President Bola Tinubu at the Presidential Villa in Abuja on Monday.
The meeting, which lasted between 2 p.m. and 4 p.m., was not made public and has sparked curiosity among political observers and citizens alike. The details of the discussions held behind closed doors remain unclear, but sources suggest it could have been related to Jandor's recent political developments.
Jandor, who had contested as the PDP’s governorship candidate in Lagos State, made headlines recently by resigning from the PDP, citing “indiscipline and anti-party activities” as the reasons behind his decision. However, he did not reveal his next steps or political affiliation following his resignation, leaving many to wonder about his future in Nigerian politics.
This private meeting between Jandor and President Tinubu raises questions about potential political alignments, especially as Jandor has been a vocal figure in Lagos politics. It also comes amid ongoing political discussions about shifting allegiances and the future of various political figures.
Political analysts are watching closely to see whether Jandor's next move will align him with the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) or if he will chart a different path entirely. The secrecy surrounding the meeting has fueled speculation, and both Tinubu and Jandor’s camps have yet to release an official statement regarding the content of their discussions.
As the political landscape in Nigeria continues to evolve, many are eager to see how this meeting may shape the future of Lagos State politics and Jandor’s role in it.
