The 2023 Lagos State governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Abdul-Azeez Adediran, popularly known as Jandor, has stated that the party has lost hope in itself due to ongoing internal crises.

Speaking on Politics Today, a programme on Channels Television, on Tuesday, Jandor, who resigned from the PDP on Monday, said the leadership crisis at the party’s national headquarters was a major source of embarrassment.

He referenced the ongoing criticism of the acting National Chairman, Umar Damagum, who has been blamed by party members for the PDP’s internal struggles, particularly after replacing Iyorchia Ayu.

The party’s crisis has been exacerbated by a dispute over the National Secretary position, with both Senator Samuel Anyanwu and former National Youth Leader, Sunday Ude-Okoye, vying for the role.

Tensions have escalated in recent months, deepening divisions within the party’s key structures, including the Board of Trustees, the National Working Committee, and the National Executive Committee.

The situation is particularly concerning in the South-South, where the zonal congress held on February 22 without the governors’ consent, has further complicated matters.

Jandor described the crisis at both the national and state levels as damaging to the PDP’s public image.

“Who goes around proudly identifying as a PDP member with all that is happening at both the national and state levels? The optics are bad,” he said.
