The reason behind the postponement of the declaration of Adeniran Abdul-Azeez (JANDOR) to 21st January 2021 has eventually been revealed as the planners have now been put to shame. What was planned to be a UNITY RALLY which is the main reason why the said Governors and National Officers of the People’s Democratic Party were invited to Lagos State, was hijacked by JANDOR and his co-fraudulent planners to be used as his declaration. WHAT A SHAME ON THE PARTY!

Any Unity Rally is meant to be a fusion of all leaders or components in an organization or system, the question from the rally held last Friday is how many leaders apart from the few that identify with Chief Bode Goerge were invited? It was indeed a failure. Since the plan was to shift the purpose to serve as the declaration of this paperweight decampee whose intention was only to make use of the existing structure of the party to boost his declaration, the entire members of the State where fooled to attend an event that was meant to bring all leaders in the State together as one family. Aspirants to various elective positions were deceived to attend the declaration event not knowing that what was planned was a UNITY RALLY! The merger of the two events is the worst political scam the LAGOS STATE PDP has ever experienced in the name of receiving decampees. But this event has left more questions than answers.

The planners of the event should know that members of the party in the State are wiser now and would not believe their half truths anymore. Where the National Chairman was forcibly mandated by Bukola Saraki to attend the event, the Governor of Rivers State, Wyesom Wike was deceived to release the sum of N20m for a UNITY RALLY whereas the planners used PDP funds to mobilize party members for the declaration of a decampee, gave them Lagos4Lagos T-shirts and N500 each to attend the event. All these funds were disbursed to the benefit of a faction led by Chief Bode. We also know that N10m out of the money is meant to be used to support the State chapter to get a party secretariat but we are also aware that reports making the rounds had it that Seyi Makinde had secured a secretariat that our party members are yet to visit. Governor Wike should remember Chief Bode’s outburst when during the contest for the National Chairmanship position. Has our dear Governor forgotten that he was referred to as a “boy” by the Chief? Is all this rigmarole in the bid to secure a higher National office? We urge Saraki to be careful in his desperation to secure the presidential ticket and not unknowingly sell Lagos State to Bola Tinubu like our Lagos Chief has been doing.

We wonder why the National Working Committee would allow itself to be dragged into this fraud? The said paperweight decampee did not have any key political position in his former party apart from other than being a former cameraman and failed serial aspirant after losing the several ward congresses of the party and subsequently the Lagos East Senatorial ticket. It is a shame that our National leaders were stampeded by the Chief planner Chief Olabode Goerge, a grossly failed leader, and General, to attend the event unknowingly thinking there were coming for a UNITY RALLY. We suggest that the planners should investigate the quality of APC members that decamped to the Delta State chapter of the People’s Democratic Party the following day 22nd January 2022. Sadly, this event didn’t receive much attention from the National body! This event in Delta State has left the APC in the State in comatose. We ask what effect JANDOR’s exist has on the Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress.

To assist them, we know as a fact that, that State chapter welcomed more prominent members of the opposition party in the State. Those who defected include former state chairman of APC, Cyril Ogodo; state publicity secretary of the APC caretaker committee, Sylvester Imonina; and former senatorial chairman of APC, Ben Onwuka.

Others are leaders of various APC support groups including Ovie Omo-Agege Solidarity Movement, G30 APC group led by Sylvester Ogbokuni; the Leaders and Elders Council of APC Delta central led by Sylvester Kohwo; among others. Anyone would agree that these are quality and heavyweight politicians. Who are the prominent members that accompanied JANDOR to Lagos PDP? Who are his real members as 95% of the attendees were visibly PDP members.

Meanwhile, it is important to remind the General having lost many battles (elections) and lost massive support that if he were still in the Military, he would have lost his seniority. His antics of using National connect against the wishes of the majority of party faithful’s has to be checkmated. His repeated calls to the National Chairman and other National officers to hand twist them to support his candidate for Lagos State PDP Chairman will fail and if allowed to persist will see more failure in the chapter ahead of the 2023 elections. We wonder why the General saying he is now a democrat can not support a free and fair congress here in Lagos and insists on his dictatorial tactics of writing names of unpopular and questionable characters to fill State Executive positions. WE REMIND THE NWC THAT THE NATIONAL CONVENTION THAT BROUGHT THEM TO OFFICE WAS ADJUDGED AS THE BEST EVER IN THE HISTORY OF THE PARTY. WHY SHOULD LAGOS STATE BE DIFFERENT???

WE MUST STOP THIS FRAUD NOW!

The way forward is for all our ward Chairmen across the 245 wards in Lagos State to open a new register for his supposed fellow decampees so that they can be easily identified and thus his value-added structure to the party can be prompted pinpointed and analyzed. In the days and weeks ahead as they attend the ward meetings their former membership cards from their old party should be received in exchange for the new ones to be given to them by the ward chairmen. This event should be monitored by ward leaders in the open glare of all PDP members across the State. It is an audacity that our PDP structure be allowed to be manipulated by these wonderers. Social media is an open-ended channel where such life proofs will be exhibited which we are hopeful will start to send real shivers to the party structure that they have abandoned and signify more strength as he is being touted to bring to our party. In other to support the TBS SCAM, we hear some members responding by saying that former PDP members who decamped to APC are on their way back to the party with JANDOR and that was why we saw so many know faces in Lagos4Lagos T-shirts, well no problem we urge them to go to the ward levels across the State to identify themselves.

PDP GOVERNORS DID NOT COME TO LAGOS FOR JANDOR THEY CAME FOR A UNITY RALLY!!!
