Jandor: President Tinubu Needs To Press The Reset Button, Seek Outward Help For Nigeria

In a bid to alleviate the sufferings of Nigerians the Lagos PDP Governorship Candidate in the 2023 election, Abdul-Azeez Adediran, popularly known as Jandor, has urged President Bola Tinubu to press the reset button and seek outward help.

While speaking in an interview with ARISE NEWS on Tuesday, Jandor emphasized the need to put aside political wrangles as ‘no one is exempted from the Nigerian challenges’

“If you are elected a governor or a president of your state, nobody expects you to know everything, that is why you have the power to identify what resources to deploy where and this is why I said with what has happened in the last nine months, the president needs to seek help. He needs to press a reset button. You will see that in the process of us controlling the forex, I’ve never seen where CBN is releasing policies every day and at the end of the day nothing happens.

“We have had situations where they said all the forty-three items restriction should be lifted, ETA will not be accessed again, banks should release excess with them, still we didn’t have results. It shows that something is really wrong with the person driving that aspect of the economy and it is about time Mr. President should look outward and look for help. He needs to step out of that nuclear family and look for who can help the government.

“For me, I am not playing politics and I don’t think he should be playing politics because if the man crashes, it will crash on all of us. The things going on in this country are affecting all of us, not just a few people and this is the time to see how we can proffer solutions. He is living his dream and Nigerians also want to live their dreams of a good government and enjoying good governance.”

Meanwhile, reacting to the claims that he expelled some members of the PDP, the governorship candidate stated that he lacks the power to do so, stating that the said persons expelled themselves by declaring support for candidates of another party in the electioneering process.

“I did not expel them. I do not have the power to do so, but I will rather say that they expelled themselves when they declared for another party during the 2023 electioneering process and this is not just a mere allegation.

“They were on national tv declaring for another party both for the presidential and governorship election and if you have a supposed leader of a particular party who has gone on national tv to say don’t vote for my party or the candidate of my party, irrespective of whatever it is, it shows that that leader has gone to the other party. I mean, if the party they supported had won, wouldn’t they have been part of the government today? So, they expelled themselves.

“If they want to rejoin the party, it is done in politics, you go back to your wards and rejoin through your wards. But, on your own, you came on national tv, on your own, you hosted another candidate in your house and declared support, asking every other person to support that person who is not the candidate of the party that you are supposedly the leader, you took that decision and not me. It is about time we looked for like minds within the PDP to see how we can set the reset button.”
