The Digest:
In the early shaping of Lagos's political future, a familiar contender asserts his unique ground. According to the Daily Post, PDP's 2023 gubernatorial candidate, Jandor, declared that while President Tinubu's son, Seyi, is qualified to run, he alone possesses the critical experience of having been on the ballot.
Key Points:

- He emphasized that aside from former Governor Ambode, one has been a governorship candidate before.
- Jandor framed his 2023 run as having been built "single-handedly without any backing."
