Jandor says Seyi Tinubu is eligible to run for Lagos governor but insists he is more experienced.
The 2023 governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State, Olajide Adediran, popularly known as Jandor, has said that President Bola Tinubu’s son, Seyi Tinubu, is qualified to contest the 2027 governorship election.
Jandor, however, argued that Seyi lacks his level of political experience, noting that the president’s son has never appeared on the ballot.
Speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today on Thursday, he was asked if he stood a chance against potential contenders such as Seyi Tinubu, former Governor Akinwunmi Ambode and Senator Tokunbo Abiru.
“Okay, so all the names that you have mentioned… they are all qualified to be governor of Lagos. This includes Seyi himself,” he said.
“But… none of them have actually been on the ballot as governorship candidates aside from myself. So I come with that experience… without any backing.”
