The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State has debunked reports on social media that its governorship candidate, Abdul-Azeez Adediran (Jandor) was in talks with his counterpart in the Labour
party (LP), Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour.
The LP candidate, Rhodes-Vivour, had also reportedly said he is in talks with “the real owners of PDP structure in Lagos State” for that purpose.
But, in a statement issued on Monday, by the PDP Publicity Secretary in the State, Hakeem Amode, said the party is not in talks with any political party.
Amode, who doubled as Chairman, Media and Publicity Team for JandorFunke 2023 Campaign Council, emphasised that the PDP governorship candidate is not planning to step down for any candidate of any political party.
He noted that the PDP is a proper democratic party and that only the state executive of the party can be described as the custodian of the PDP.
