FBIBOT: You want to be governor and you started hyping yourself just after the presidential election... You shot yourself in the leg due to overconfidence abt the Obi wave in Lagos during presidential... People know what they want... Under normal circumstances.. You side by side with Sanwo Ölü you can't beat him with his achievements. For now build bridges, connect and make amends where necessary. You aren't the only igbo politic in Lagos go and ask Desmond Eliot.
igbo land dont recognise children of yoruba men as any thing other than Nwadiala.
They are not Nwafor meaning son of the soil.
So stop calling him Igbo, he is not.
IN IGBOLAND, U ANSWER YOUR FATHER NAME, YOUR MOTHER IS IRRELEVANT.
PLAY YOUR POLITICS BUT DONT GET IT TWISTED, IGBO PEOPLE HAVE CULTURE, BEFORE WE SURPRISE YOU.
Israel07: I barely come on here cos this place is mo longer what it used to be but in I want to say something about this GRV case. I think LP should have chosen someone like Ambode instead, secondly I don't think enough background check was done on him. He's a young man yes, but lacks in a lot of areas especially emotional maturity and I don't blame him. He was raised by a single young woman which is a tragic thing for every young boy. A girl can't raise a man, they simply can't and in an effort to fill a void left by the father damage the boy's psychology. You see how he's always expressing himself emotionally, those past tweet is testament to this and he kinda talks a bit too much in an undiplomatic way too. Thirdly I'd say APC as a party and it's members/supporters aren't interested in playing fair, it's always win at all cost. This young man has been undeservedly profiled by his own kinsmen despite being a true Lagosian cos APC saw a loophole and took advantage. Who can say where Igbo people gathered and said Lagos is a no man's land? This thing I have heard before but nobody ever took with a pinch of salt so how come all of a sudden it is used a basis for propaganda? APC infiltrated LP movement and started making comments that 'll turn the Yorubas against the Igbos. It's a tactic that worked so well aided by GRV stupid tweets in the past. I'll say again that if Ambode took the LP form Sanwo Olu would have started packing his bag already which for me I think would have been the best candidate. Now look at the amount of damage this politicians that care about nobody but themselves have done to the fragile relationship between two tribes that can't really do without each other as far as Nigeria exist. Igbos planning to take over Lagos statement is just so dumb, like how's that even possible? Geographically it's not feasible in anyway which also not making sense when they say Igbos said Lagos is a no man's land when Lagos is in the South west. APC keeps using us against us to get what they want. It was same when Igbos were threatened to be thrown into the lagoon by Oba of Lagos. I don't understand why and how we can't see how they using people as pawn. Femi will still marry Amaka n I'll still marry my beautiful Tosin, my family accepts her wholly. I speak Igbo and Yoruba fluently. I speak Hausa but not fluently. Lagos election has set a bad tone of what the next 4 years will look like. Nigerians are not ready to move Nigeria forward, I don't see any greatness in this country with all this seed of hatred and division in this country.
GRV WAS YOUNG AND I THINK PETER OBI WAS TRYING TO GIVE BACK TO THE YOUTH THAT HE FEEL ARE SUPPORTING HIM.
OTHERWISE, AMBODE WOULD HAVE BEEN AN EXCELLENT CHOICE.
THEY WILL STILL SAY, HE IS IGBO CANDIDATE.
U HAVE TO UNDERSTAND THAT THE TRIBAL CARD WORKS AND TINUBU DEPENDS ON THAT TO WIN LAGOS.
YORUBA ARE MORE THAN IGBO IN LAGOS, SO TO GET THEIR BLOCK VOTE, TELL THEM IGBO IS COMING AND WATCH THEM FALL LIKE A PACK OF CARDS OVER THEMSELVES.
AS A MATTER OF FACT, IGBO PEOPLE IN LAGOS ARE EXTREMELY VALUABLE TO TINUBU, HE WOULD NOT WISH THEM AWAY.
Seun Osewa, now that Gbadebo is rigged out, I know you are happy now.
thinking you got at least 4 more years to continue living a fool paradise calling yourself youth and kid.
It will only get worst as more of your age mate fill up the top jobs.
At your age Gowon was already head of state and Ojukwu was also head of state.
At your age OBJ had already been head of state.
Try and be supporting your generation and tribes man.
Gbadebo is our inlaw not my tribes man. He is a yoruba son and i'm telling you that after the election is done and dusted. Let it sink into your head and other urchins.
Rhodes-Vivour rejects Lagos governorship election results The Labour Party's governorship candidate in Lagos State, Mr Rhodes-Vivour, says he is convinced that he won the election, and vows to challenge the results.
The governorship candidate of the Labour Party in Lagos State, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, has vowed to challenge the results of Saturday’s election announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
In a series of tweets on Sunday, Mr Rhodes-Vivour said he is convinced that he won the election.
“In the light of this, I am convinced beyond any doubt that the results being released by INEC do not represent the wishes of the majority of peaceful Lagosians,” he tweeted.
“More so the results from our field agents and situation room indicated that we won this election.
“I am a champion of the people, we are far from done. Do not lose hope, do not waver,” he wrote.
“This is not over, we have not come this far to accept outright lies, criminality & falsehoods. A fight for freedom is never easily won.”
Although the state governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, who is seeking reelection is yet to be officially declared the winner of the poll, he has so far secured the highest number of votes in 18 of 20 local government areas in the state.
The incumbent governor polled the highest votes in Ikeja, Apapa, Badagry, Lagos Island, Epe, Agege, Ibeju-lekki, Kosofe, Surulere and Somolu.
Others, where the governor won, are Ajeromi-Ifelodun, Ifako-Ijaiye, Lagos Mainland, Alimosho, Ojo, Ikorodu, Mushin and Oshodi-Isolo.
Olajide Adediran of the PDP, the third major candidate in the election, has not won in any local government and comes a distant third in terms of the total votes cast.
The LP candidate who won Amuwo-Odofin LGA said the abuse of power by the ruling party and electoral officials is a “slap on the face of democracy” and Lagosians who decided to partake in the election.
Mr Rhodes-Vivour said he was saddened by the reports of violence and gross disenfranchisement of voters who came out to perform their civic obligation.
The result of one local government area – Eti-Osa – was still being expected as of the time of filing this report.
PREMIUM TIMES reported that voting in Victoria Garden City in Eti-Osa was postponed till today(Sunday) by INEC due to a disagreement between residents and INEC officials.
PREMIUM TIMES will provide more details of the Lagos State governorship election in subsequent reports.
GBADEBO WAS BORN A YORUBA MAN AND EVEN YESTERDAY IS A YORUBA MAN AND AFTER THE ELECTION HE WILL STILL REMAIN A YORUBA MAN.
ANY OTHER THING IS JUST POLITICS.
EVERY ELECTION NOW IS ABOUT IGBO, YET AFTER ELECTION YOU SHAMELESSLY GO BACK TO EATING WITH THEM, DRINKING WITH THEM AND EVEN SLEEPING WITH THEM.
THE WORST OF THE WORST, WILL JUST COME OUT WITH THEIR TIGER SCRATCH FACE AND BE SHOUTING IGBO, LAS, LAS THEY WILL FULL SOCIAL MEDIA AND BE WAITING FOR IGBO TO DO GIVE AWAY AND DATCH THEM MONEY, BECAUSE THEY ARE HUNGRY.
I WILL DO GIVE AWAY AND NOT GIVE THEM ANY MONEY.
LET THEM GO AND COLLECT IT FROM TINUBU.
HOW CAN ONE MAN, TURN A WHOLE STATE TO FAMILY BUSINESS?
USE THEIR BRAIN TO PLAY IGBO EVERY ELECTION FOR BLOCK VOTE.
AS IT STANDS TODAY, IGBO IS A VALUABLE ASSET TO TINUBU APC IN LAGOS, HE WILL USE THEM TO MOBILISE BLOCK YORUBA VOTE EVERY ELECTION AND WIN.
Maize247: The woman is a typical Ibo woman. I can state clearly her attributes without knowing her. Hot tempered, wickedness, inpatient,,, she is more or less like a market woman regardless of the money and exposure. The way Nigerians dodge a bullet from lying master, Obi, Lagosian dodge a bullet from tribal bigot Chinedu Gbadebo family..
NOW GO BACK TO WORK AND LIVE PEACEFULLY WITH THE IGBOS IN LAGOS, SIDE BY SIDE.
MAKE SURE YOU DONT ACCEPT ANYTHING FROM IGBO HENCEFORTH, DATE OR MARRY ANY.
DO NOT ACCEPT HELP OR TREATMENT FROM IGBO DOCTORS.
eldoradoxx: The level of ignorance at work in your life is pathetic bro. That Igbos are not free to choose to vote for either Sanwo Olu (a Yoruba man) or Gbadebo Rhodes Vivors (another Yoruba man) shows how hateful and vengeful, hypocritical and fooo.lish all of you who share same opinion as Bayo Adenuga are. If it is clear that voting Sanwo Olu is voting Yoruba agenda, it means that a Yoruba man called Gbadebo Rhodes Vivors has already been disqualified from being elected to a Yoruba office of Governor of Lagos State by those who feel that they are more Yoruba than Gbadebo Rhodes Vivors. That is the crime the Igbos committed in Lagos, daring to prefer one Yoruba man called Gbadebo Rhodes Vivors over the other called Sanwo Olu. No other crime.
STOP WASTING YOUR TIME WITH THAT FOOL.
THERE IS NOTHING IN HIS BRAIN MORE THAN IGBO.
WHEN THE SAME IGBO START BIAFRA, HE WILL CALL BUHARI AND DSS TO STOP THEM.
CARRY NNAMDI KANU IN HIS HEAD AS IF LAGOS WAS INCLUDED IN BIAFRA.
ONE DAY ALL THIS WILL END AND THAT DAY IS ROUND THE CORNER.
LAGOS IS A DIRTY CITY, THAT THEY WILL BEG IGBOS TO STAY, ONCE BIAFRA IS ACTUALISED.
Samunique: I want to beg this young blood GRV to be careful and mind his tongue, so that he won't get himself into trouble.
He's a good man, but our hyper toxic Igbo brothers jeopardized his chances.
Igbos need to change their tactics they're too lousy abeg !!!
That's how they made Tinubu to get sympathy votes from those who would have naturally voted for Obi by their rude, abusive, uncouthness and bad manarism.
I KNOW SOON, I WILL KILL ONE YORUBA MAN FOR RECKLESSLY MENTIONING MY TRIBE NAME.
IT IS GETTING TOO MUCH, IGBO THIS IGBO THAT BUT GBADEBO IS A YORUBA MAN, SO Y MENTION ANOTHER TRIBE?
