They’re not serious – APC mocks PDP, Jandor over choice of Funke Akindele as running mate

 

The Lagos State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has said the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), and its governorship candidate Dr. Abdulaziz Olajide Adediran aka Jandor, are not serious.

The ruling party said this in reaction to the nomination of ace actress, Funke Akindele popularly known as Jenifa, as the running mate to the Adediran

Spokesman of the party, Mr. Seye Oladejo in a statement said the choice of Akindele equates to making fun of the governorship election, describing her and Jandor as amateur.

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.
