Abdul Azeez Olajide Adediran, the face of opposition to the second term bid of Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu before Peter Obi happened to Labour Party and its gubernatorial candidate, Gbadebo Rhodes Vivour became a ferocious challenger is back and talking up his ambition.

Adediran, more popular known Jandor, pegged to far-behind-third-position in the last lap of gubernatorial campaign and eventual result is in court challenging the second term victory of Governor Sanwo-Olu.

Sanwo-Olu, the flag bearer of the All Progressives Congress (APC) won the March 18, 2023 Lagos governorship election by getting 762,134 votes, Labour Party’s Rhode Vivour recorded 312,329 votes while Jandor , the candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) who took a very early lead in the campaigns but drastically lost steam toward the election, with loss of key players in his team, came a distant third with 62,449 votes.

And he is challenging Sanwo-Olu’s win at the election tribunal not based on the results of the election but on prayers that the participation of the winner by a landslide in the electoral process should be invalidated as well as that of Labour Party’s Rhodes-Vivour.

Jandor is insisting that the process that produced Sanwo-Olu and Rhodes – Vivour’s as gubernatorial candidates breached electoral rules and disqualification the appropriate sanction.

“We also pointed out where, and how all Respondents breached their own party Laws and election guidelines, all of which are enough grounds for disqualification” he provided an update to supporters on happenings at the election tribunal in a social media post on Thursday, July 13, 2023.

Nullifying the involvement of the duo with individual votes multiple times that of Adedidran in the Lagos state governorship election leaves him in pole position to be named winner by default.

And the Jandor, 45, has declared his readiness to go the whole mile in attempt to actualize this objective.

Informing his supporters about what is to come at the election tribunal on the Lagos gubernatorial election and how far he is willing to go, the PDP candidate declared “the next phase is final address and adoption of same before the judgement, and whatever comes out of that, whichever way it goes, Supreme Court is still last bus stop of the 2023 Election.”

He made the disclosure after an initial assertion that “Seven years ago, when i started this journey, my promise to the people of Lagos was that this won’t just be for the sake of it…I said we will do everything humanely possible to be on the ballot, and not just for the sake of being on the ballot alone, that we will see the process to the very end.

Today, I am still standing on that promise, and by his grace we will see this to the very end.”

The post in which Jandor made the declaration on social media (Facebook) is the second since he lost the March 18, 2023 gubernatorial election by “kilometers”.
