Funke Akindele, the Deputy Governorship Candidate of the PDP in Lagos State, has claimed that God called her to run as Jandor’s deputy governor for the upcoming 2023 Lagos state elections.
According to Funke Akindele, a mum of twin boys and popular filmmaker, God called her and the PDP Governorship Candidate, Dr Abdul-Azeez Adediran (Jandor) to change the story of the state if elected in 2023.
It was reported that Funke Akindele made this remark at the Sunday Worship Service of the Ayo Ni O Cherubim and Seraphim Movement Church, Surulere District, Badagry Circuit Headquarters.
According to her, God has been with her right from birth and He is interested in her aspirations to make Lagos state work for all segments and divisions of the state.
“God has been with me from infant till I went to school and till now. He chose me to be the deputy governorship candidate of the PDP, despite the crowd that struggled to be chosen.
“I give God all the glory for what he has done. God has always been doing the best for me.
“We were called by God, if not we would have backed out. People have suffered but God has called us and put us forward to come and change the story of Lagos state to better. The success of Lagos state is ours,” she said.
Akindele thanked the church leaders for their prayers and support.
