The Lagos State People Democratic Party (PDP) gubernatorial candidate, Dr AbdulAzeez Adeniran popularly known as Jandor has said the Director of the Special Media Projects of the Tinubu/Shettima Presidential Campaign Council, Chief Femi Fani-Kayode, will come begging after the party wins next year’s governorship election in the state.
He said the former Aviation Minister is only interested in being close to the corridors of power and personal gains.

Adeniran said “We will win at the polls next year and I am very sure Fani Kayode will come begging for a spokesperson job as he can’t survive outside the corridors of government, and guess what, we will engage him.”
Fani-Kayode in an earlier statement stated that Jandor must be mentally ill to think he can defeat incumbent governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu of the APC.
He said, “If the strange young man with the equally strange name of ‘Jandor’ honestly believes he has a hope in hell of defeating Babajide Sanwo-Olu in next year’s governorship election in Lagos State, then he must be seriously ill and/or mentally challenged.”
In response, Jandor blasted FFK, stating that he has consistently in his political career shown that he is only after personal gain and proximity to power.
He further bashed FFK for joining the APC after publicly slamming the party in the aftermath of the 2020 #EndSARS violence.
Jandor said, “Femi Fani-Kayode’s personal life has more than enough scandal to discredit him, but out of respect for many, who have been harmed by his actions especially women and his employees, we will stick to his political career.
“For every attack that Femi Fani-Kayode has launched against a politician, government official or political party, there is a corresponding statement where he contradicts himself with praises said to the person, official or political party.
“The moment you are able to sprinkle little corn for the fowl, Fani Kayode goes back on his words without remorse and betrays his closest associates.
“This is consistent across his entire political career and affirms what we all know, that he is a man who is motivated only by personal gain and will go anywhere, and say anything provided it gives him proximity to power and takes care of his stomach.
“It is only a matter of time, his attention would turn positively to Jandor the moment we take over the Lagos House, which we will certainly do by May 29, 2023…just wait and see.”
“If anything, this attempt at character assassination, barely one week after our convoy was attacked by sponsored thugs and 48 hours after fake news was leaked to the press that 5,000 Jandor members decamped to the All Progressives Congress, proves what we already knew; the APC is frightened that its hold on Lagos has weakened and grasping at whatever straws to hold on to power,” he said.
