Jandor Replies Asiwaju Tinubu on Funke Akindele Video

He made this post Thursday Afternoon

Over the last few months, through radio and television interviews and communications via the Lagos4Lagos channels, I have graciously responded to questions about my decision to invite Funke Akindele to run with me as deputy governor of Lagos state.

Despite my very clear intentions, people have continued to try to discredit Funke Akindele and ridicule her capacity to lead, using the very things that have brought her great success, and acclaim as reasons to attack her. Let me state it again, unequivocally,

Funke Akindele is my running mate because she is one of the most accomplished indigenes of Lagos state, an extremely savvy business woman who has contributed so much in Lagos economy where those who spoke little of her have made their fortunes, without a trace to any personal business of theirs, before attaining public office.

She understands the power of narrative and has used it to advance causes important to her, her exemplary career of over twenty years in an industry where the stars of others have risen and waned, speaks volume of her tenacity.

There is so much effort to discredit her because the people concerned know that Funke cannot be bought with monetary incentives( believe me they have tried) she cannot be bullied and she refuses to be corrupted by the ambition of others.

There’s no parent who wouldn’t be proud of Funke Akindele who rose to her current enviable status, through her hard work and parental trainings, except for those who trained theirs with public funds.

I would be terrified too, if I was an opposition to such a formidable woman. But unlike them, we intend to win honourably, by convincing the people about sincerity and urgency of our mission. I would advise those who whisper about her credibility to do the same.
