The All Progressives Congress (APC), Lagos State chapter, has criticised the governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, Olajide Adediran aka Jandor and his running mate Funke Akindele for visiting a widow Dorothy and her son Osinachi Ndukwe whose mini-bus was recently auctioned by the state.Ndukwe told Jandor and Funke that he lost his daughter while serving a three-month sentence for a traffic offence. After serving the sentence, the government auctioned his vehicle.Jandor told him that although he was not encouraging disregard for the state’s laws, he believes a penalty should not take away people’s means of livelihood.In a statement on Sunday, spokesman of the APC in Lagos Seye Oladejo described the visit as “appalling.”The statement said, “It’s saddening that Jandor and his deputy, Funke Akindele, have graduated from playing politics with human lives to blatantly encouraging the break down of law and order in our dear state.“The visit to citizens who paid the price for violating state traffic laws, compensating, inducing and encouraging them is an act that’s totally unacceptable in any decent society.“The move of Jandor amounts to turning compassion and charity on its head.“It was pathetic that he simply interpreted the loss of his hosts to having their means of livelihood taken away from them when in actual fact, people have lost their lives to accidents as a result of driving against traffic.“However, we are not surprised by the promotion of lawlessness by the opposition party as it remains consistent with their desperation as we count down to the next elections.“Their role in the spread of Covid with the promotion and sponsorship of needless mass gatherings- ENDSARS- during pandemic and the social events hosted by his deputy, Funke Akindele are pointers to the lawlessness of the duo and their party.“We expect Funke to be eternally grateful to the state governor for receiving less than a slap on her wrist for a life threatening crime against the state.
