Bode George, a leader of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), has called Abdul-Azeez Adediran, the party’s nominee for the Lagos gubernatorial election in 2023, a born liar.

In an interview with Jimi Disu on Nigerian Info FM on Tuesday, George made this claim.

Before the 2023 elections, Adediran, also known as Jandor, switched from the All Progressives Congress (APC) to the PDP and accepted the party’s governorship ticket.

Four days after meeting with President Bola Tinubu in Abuja, he declared his comeback to the APC on Monday.

Speaking on the previous PDP candidate for governor, George claimed that Jandor had taught the party a valuable lesson by agreeing to choose Gbadebo Rhodes-Viviour as his running mate but then breaking that promise.

“He lies from birth.” It was an older, well-respected leader who introduced us to him. According to the party chieftain, it was unique since Gbadebo (Rhodes-Vivour) was leading the charge (on the PDP governorship ticket).

However, because we value the elderly in our society, we had to decide what to do when the honorable man presented Jandor.

“Gbadebo was present, but when I inquired about his age, he stated that he was 39, but Jandor stated that he was 45. The elder politician responded, “We can figure something out.”
