A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Bode George, has described Abdul-Azeez Adediran, the party’s candidate in the 2023 governorship election in Lagos, as a congenital liar.
George stated this Tuesday in a chat with Jimi Disu on Nigerian Info FM.
Recall that Adediran, popularly known as Jandor, joined the PDP from the All Progressives Congress, APC, before the 2023 elections and picked the party’s governorship ticket.
He announced his return to the APC on Monday four days after meeting President Bola Tinubu in Abuja.
George, while speaking about the former PDP governorship candidate, said Jandor taught PDP a lesson, noting that he had agreed to pick Gbadebo Rhodes-Viviour as his running mate but reneged.
“He is a congenital liar. We stumbled into him through an older, respectable leader who brought him. It was something unusual because Gbadebo (Rhodes-Vivour) was at the forefront (of the PDP governorship ticket), the party chieftain said.
“But when the respectable man brought Jandor, we had to make a decision because, in our culture, we respect the elderly.
“Gbadebo was on hand, but I asked him his age, and he said he was 39, and Jandor said he was 45. And I said, ‘We can work something out,” the elder statesman said.
