Jandor Challenges Tinubu, Secures APC Nomination Form

Jandor has formally expressed his interest in the APC nomination for the upcoming elections by obtaining the nomination form, despite reports indicating that President Tinubu supports the current Lagos deputy governor, Adediran, as the preferred candidate. This decision aligns with the party's official position and the direct primary process established by the party.

Jandor's action is significant as it reflects his commitment to the party's electoral process and the endorsement of party leaders. He emphasizes the importance of engaging with the electorate and deepening democracy, stating that the party must earn the trust of the people through consistent engagement and dedication to common good.

The context of this move is framed within the electoral act of 2026, which aims to ensure that the party's supremacy is respected while navigating the challenges ahead. Jandor's candidacy represents a critical moment in the political landscape of Lagos as he seeks to contribute meaningfully to the democratic process.
