Dr. Olajide Adediran, widely known as Jandor, has formally declared his intention to run for the 2027 Lagos State governorship election on the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC). The Lead Visioner of the Lagos4Lagos Movement and former PDP candidate made the announcement during Nigeria’s 65th Independence Anniversary, while also pledging his full support for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s re-election bid. “As for Lagos State, I am offering myself once again to serve. I’m indeed running for the Lagos governorship race in 2027,” Jandor stated, dismissing speculations about other possible contenders, including Seyi Tinubu and former Governor Akinwunmi Ambode. He described his political journey as intentional and calculated, recalling how his earlier foray into Lagos politics disrupted the political establishment. “When it was time for me to truly leave, I came all out, and we took Lagos by storm. Very soon, activities will begin to galvanize support from Mr. President and the party. Let me put this to rest: I am running in 2027,” he declared. Jandor praised President Tinubu’s style of leadership, describing it as visionary and courageous. He urged Lagosians and Nigerians in general to rally behind the President in 2027 for a second term. “President Bola Ahmed Tinubu has proven his capacity to lead this country with vision and courage. I call on Lagosians and Nigerians at large to ensure he gets a second term so we can all continue to benefit from his progressive leadership,” he said. He encouraged Nigerians to remain hopeful and steadfast, assuring that the nation’s future holds greater promise.
