PDP Governorship Candidate, Adeniran and his Deputy, Funke Akindele
Spokesman of the governing All Progressives Congress, APC, party in Lagos State, Seye Oladejo has described the opposition Peoples Democratic Party in the state as unserious for the great task ahead of the upcoming governorship election in March 2023.
According to him, nothing best justify his statement than with the nomination of Nollywwod star, Funke Akindele as deputy governorship candidate to Babajide Adeniran, aka, Jandol on Tuesday.
He said: “This development underscores the unseriousness of Lagos state PDP. This amounts to trivializing the importance of the forthcoming gubernatorial elections by giving political neophytes who have absolutely nothing to bring to the table their electoral tickets.
“It also shows lack of depth in the party as regards quality members to put forward for elections. If they could give a member who crossed-carpeted a few days before their primaries the governorship ticket and now went to the make-believe industry to fetch a deputy. The reason for voters’ apathy is, undoubtedly, due to lack of credible alternatives by the moribund opposition party.
Oladejo said he was amused to read that the deputy governorship candidate said she was suspending her acting career for the elections whose result is highly predictable.
“I guess she’s suspending a lot more because she has been in the news of recent for all the wrong reasons.
“Lagosians will certainly not allow governance to be turned to a needless experiment or a sitcom. Governance is serious business not a circus.
“Congratulations in advance to the duo of Governor Babajide SANWOOLU-olu and his deputy, Dr. Obafemi Hamzat.”
