“We will consult widely with everybody and then take the decision to collapse our structure to another platform. What is majority on ground now is that we have left the Peoples Democratic Party,” Jandor stated.
His exit marks a significant shift in the Lagos political landscape, and speculations are rife regarding the new political party he and his supporters will be joining.
