The Lagos State Governance Advisory Council has received Dr Abdul-Azeez Adediran, popularly known as Jandor, a former Peoples Democratic Party chieftain and Visioner of the Lagos4Lagos Movement, back into the ruling All Progressives Congress.

Jandor, the 2023 Lagos State Governorship candidate of the PDP defected to the APC in March 2025.

In a statement issued by his spokesman, Pastor Gbenga Ogunleye, on Thursday in Lagos, Jandor said he was received by GAC members led by Prince Tajudeen Olusi.

He said, “In a significant show of unity and goodwill, Dr. Abdul-Azeez Olajide Adediran, Jandor, was warmly received by the Lagos State Governance Advisory Council (GAC) Chairman, Prince Tajudeen Olusi; Badagry Division Apex Leader of APC and fellow GAC member, Chief Rabiu Oluwa; Sen. Ganiu Olanrewaju Solomon and Sen. Musiliu Obanikoro.”

According to Jandor, the reception took place in Saudi Arabia.

“The meeting, which held during the Umrah pilgrimage, served as a symbolic moment of engagement between key stakeholders in Lagos politics, emphasising the importance of unity.

“This encounter reflects a shared commitment to the progress and unity of Lagos State, underscoring the enduring values of collective responsibility and synergy in the furtherance of the vision of the ruling party,” the statement added.

Adediran resigned from PDP on March 3, alleging indiscipline and betrayal by party leaders.

Adediran, who leads the Lagos4Lagos Movement and was once an APC governorship aspirant, had defected to the PDP from the APC in 2021.
