Olajide Adediran, popularly known as Jandor, has claimed that if not for the “Peter Obi effect,” he would have emerged victorious over Babajide Sanwo-Olu in the 2023 Lagos State governorship election.

Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Tuesday, the former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate argued that the unexpected surge of for the Labour Party (LP) in Lagos shifted the political landscape, making it difficult for the PDP to compete effectively.

“The 2023 election came with this tsunami that nobody ever expected, and it was there for everybody to see,” Jandor said.

He explained that after Peter Obi of the Labour Party (LP) won the February 2023 presidential election in Lagos, the dynamics of the governorship poll, held weeks later, drastically changed against the PDP.

Recall the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of the All Progressives Congress (APC) as the winner of the governorship election with 762,134 votes. Labour Party’s Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour finished second with 312,329 votes, while Jandor came third with 62,449 votes.

Jandor insisted that, before the presidential election, PDP was in a strong position and actively challenging the ruling APC.

“Before the general election, we were on the streets of Lagos, and the ruling party was nowhere to be found. We had several debates, and he (Sanwo-Olu) didn’t show up; he even said he didn’t want to share a stage with me,” Jandor recalled.

“The 2023 election had its own dynamics. It was a two-horse race until the presidential election. If you look at what happened, Peter Obi came first in Lagos, Asiwaju came second, and Atiku came third.

“The moment that happened, there was this belief that if we do this, we can get this state off XYZ. So, we were victims of that political wave.

“Each time I address my people, I tell them: look, we did everything, but that wave came and swallowed the whole thing; nobody saw that coming.”

Someone that's a clown. If we add PDP and LP's vote together, APC still beat them black and blue

Delusions of grandeur.. you and that half-Igbo lad called Chinedu combined can't unseat Governor Sanwo Olu.
Lagos State is not for neophytes.. try your luck in Anambra or Enugu.

The Peter Obi tsunami

Lol

Real politicians who played in the field keep recognizing the force that Obi pulled in 2023 and is still pulling.

Fayose: “Obi is an institution now”.

Jandor: “Obi tsunami swept PDP away in Lagos.”

But riffraffs will stay under their brown roofs in Ogbomoso and be foaming in the mouth.

Don’t worry, 2027, una go see the one wey Beatrice.

Even with all the threats, intimidation, destruction of lives and properties, and invoking of political 'Oro' festivals by the APC and their hordes of thugs and hoodlums, it wasn't a flawless victory for the APC.

El rufai na bad candidate

The whole Nigeria knows that Obi won the election but we're too helpless to help install sanity in this country.


The man who didn't win is very confused on what to do with power.

He just ed what he did with power in Lagos and he suddenly tried to do it to whole country.

Taxing, taxing, taxing, with no improvement.

I spit on those who voted this man and those who are thinking of doing so again.

Sobalim:
Peter Obi is a movement. Only Ronu miscreants say otherwise

Movement that was centered on propaganda. 2027 will be different and we wait for the acid test.

Yeah, keep dreaming.
