Jandor Pays Surprise Visit to Sanwo-Olu, Declares He’s Back Home
In a move that caught many by surprise, Olajide Adediran — widely known as Jandor — made an unannounced visit to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu at the Lagos House in Ikeja. The former governorship candidate and face of the Lagos4Lagos Movement met with the governor behind closed doors, a moment that signals a notable shift in the state’s political tide.
After stepping out of the meeting, Jandor spoke briefly with the press, offering heartfelt congratulations to Sanwo-Olu on his re-election. More than just a courtesy call, the visit underscored Jandor’s return to his former political base.
“Honestly, I have to give it to him,” Jandor said, reflecting on the previous election season. “He stayed calm when things got intense. That kind of composure says a lot about his character.”
Jandor revealed that before the visit, he had already reconnected with his grassroots base, officially returning to his political family the previous Friday. Coming to see the governor, he explained, was the next step — a gesture that carried both personal meaning and political weight.
“It’s more than just coming back,” he said. “It’s about acknowledging what went wrong the last time. We were divided. Now, we’re realigning and ready to build together again.”
He described the meeting as a sign of unity and maturity — one that went beyond party politics.
“Lagos needs more of this,” he added. “We have to reach across political lines and find common ground if we’re serious about progress. That’s the kind of leadership the people deserve.”
Jandor’s return and his visit to Sanwo-Olu may not just be about reconciling with the past — it may be about setting the tone for a more unified and forward-thinking political future in Lagos.
