GRV, disgraced former Lagos4lagos Chairman, Sunday Ajayi in a desperate bid to relaunch themselves to relevance, leeched on JANDOR’s name

Ajayi who has since returned to APC where he is now rendered inconsequential and GRV who is currently on a political suicide mission chose to use JANDOR’s name to give credence to their long but renewed unholy alliance.

Our attention has been drawn to a publication in the media on the declared support of one Mr. Sunday Ajayi, the sacked former chairman of the Lagos4Lagos Movement for a frustrated gubernatorial aspirants of the Labour party in Lagos state.

The said publication claimed that Mr. Sunday Ajayi dumps the Governorship Candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the state, Dr. Abdul-Azeez Olajide Adediran (JANDOR) for the named Labour Party guber aspirant.

We expected that the said publication should have indicated that Mr. Sunday Ajayi dumped Sanwo Olu, the governor of the state and the guber candidate of the All Progressive Congress, and not JANDOR because Mr. Ajayi has defected to the APC since 27th April 2022.

It is expedient to clear the air that Mr. Ajayi, who was a factional chairman of the APC in the state before he defected to the PDP along with JANDOR re-joined the APC after he was fired by JANDOR-led Lagos4Lagos Apex body over alleged N100 million bribe he (Ajayi) collected from the national leader of APC, Bola Tinubu, to infiltrate and destabilize the movement ahead of the 2023 governorship election.

For further clarification, the news of his return to the APC was published in the Business Day newspaper on 27th April 2022 and other media reports stated that Ajayi had replaced the PDP flag hoisted at his home with that of the APC the next day after his shameful sack on 20th April 2022.

We are not surprised that Mr. Ajayi still claimed attachment to JANDOR three months after his defection to the APC. It is evident that the dwindling fortune of the ruling party and the public opprobrium its guber candidate is enmeshed in lately will not draw the desired attention the said publication wished to gain.

We are equally unperturbed with the fixation of Mr. Ajayi and his co-traveler on the JANDOR brand. It is of public knowledge that they belong to the Association of Political Nomads. The former moved from APC to PDP back to APC and now Labour Party while the latter moved from KOWA Party to the PDP and now to the Labour Party. They have no political home or political base and should ordinarily be ignored but for the desperation to leech off JANDOR’s name, which is understandable for both of them.

We are not unaware that their major grouse is the growing number of Lagosians who have come to recognize JANDOR as the foremost rallying point of their agitation for freedom in Lagos State with his breath of fresh air agenda.

We, therefore, appeal to the good people of Lagos state to ignore the said publication.
