Glamsquad reports that the Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has reacted to the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dr Abdulaziz Olajide Adediran nominating actress Funke Akindele better known as Jenifa, as his running mate.
The spokesperson of the party, Mr Seye Olade said the choice was made “due to lack of credible alternatives by the moribund opposition party”.
Olade further stated that the PDP candidates have no electoral value.
He said;
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.
“I 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.”
Glamsquad recalls that Abdulaziz Olajide Adediran better known as Jandor defended the party’s choice of actress Funke Akindele as his running mate in a Twitter thread on Tuesday.
According to him, the task ahead needs a co-visionary who shares the same passion for the emancipation of the good people of Lagos.
