One of the governorship aspirants under the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos State ahead of the 2027 elections, Dr. Olajide Adediran, popularly known as Jandor, has announced his withdrawal from the race.

Adediran made the announcement on Thursday while addressing journalists, party leaders of the Lagos4Lagos Movement, and his supporters at Liberty House, Adeniyi Jones Secretariat in Ikeja.

His decision comes just days after President Bola Tinubu reportedly endorsed the incumbent Deputy Governor of Lagos State, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat.

“Within hours after I purchased my nomination forms, there were developments, including a meeting involving the President and the Deputy Governor,” Jandor said.

It was later made public that the President had thrown his support behind Dr. Hamzat.

“Based on my earlier position that I will align with the direction of the President, I have decided to withdraw from the race,” he added.
