Northernblood8: Adeleke spoke Igbo during BBC interview even more than some Igbos and his Family line has alot of Igbo blood but yet no one is shouting Igbo domination.
Aketi is married to an Igbo but yet no one is shouting Igbo domination.
Real invaders, Fulani Herdsmen are in the farms and forests in rural areas taking over lands, raping and killing indigenes but yet no one is shouting Domination because they are muslims.
Yoruba Christians must not wait for MURIC to speak for them before they can Timidly speak. Until now, heavyweights like Oyedepo or Adeboye has not issue strong statement against the muslim attack on Christian Igbos under the guise of political thug. This must stop.
A proverb says that only an evil Adult will be in the house and a tied goat will give birth under bondage .
I know say you be ugm and u dey use style dey disrespect Yoruba pastors.but...sniper is less than 1k
Bitchiamjay: No dey pour spit for face. Your drug baron principal Thiéfnùbù go soon return our stolen mandate. Peter Obi will rule this country, the least you can do is drink hypo.
It was never about who is competent. Competence itself is relative and subjective It was never because he was old, circa USA the greatest country in the world It was always an ethnic agenda
funshint: This is a very serious matter. People should contact both schools he claimed to attend; both Nottingham and MIT with his full name; Chinedu Gbadebo Rhodes-vivour. Then verify with INEC which certificate he submitted for screening. We can't afford to have a fraud as Lagos state governor!
He also claim he attended ecole in France, a very ivy league school in France
iLoveYouToo: Guys please we can't allow agberos and irresponsible policemen to keep ruining lives in Lagos. We need someone who can put an end to the madness we face on intra city routes. Imagine getting your vehicle impounded for allegedly going against traffic WHEN THERE ARE NO TRAFFIC SIGNS TO INDICATE "one way traffic only".
Let's kick Sanwo Olu OUT or make him promise to rid the streets of touts and AGBEROS daily taking advantage of law abiding citizen's minor failings.
We need sanity back to the streets. You can't claim to be building a metropolitan city when thuggery and touting remains prevalent on your streets. NEVER AGAIN
ibo man why are you not concerned with Onitsha agbero
Mediahq: Ideally, democracy is meant to be a government of the people by the people for the people, but it has been twisted to be a contrary experience in Lagos State. For so long, the politics of Lagos State has always supported and benefitted only the privileged politicians, the elites, the hanger-ons, the henchmen of politicians, the ruthless enforcers, the transport unions officials, the market women officials and others at the expense of the people.
By and large, the popular political system called ‘state capture’ is the predominant behind-the-scene hand of treachery that controls the levers of economic and political power in Lagos State, while marginalising the less privileged and leaving the general average hardworking Lagosians to scramble for crumbs of survival. Thus, our state has been captured for the private benefits of less than 1 percent of the citizens of the state while 99 percent suffer from the huge infrastructure failure and large scale corruption of the APC government.
Today, as a result of the lopsided, exclusive, corrupt character of government in Lagos State, many questions are begging for answers. How many Lagosians have access to good healthcare services, potable water and affordable housing? How many low-cost houses were built by the APC government in the last 20 years for Lagosians? Perhaps the government built at best 30,000 units for over 20 million struggling tax-paying citizens of the state! Still, how many of our people are gainfully and productively employed? How many new jobs were created directly and indirectly by the state government in the last 20 years? Quite insignificant!
As the grim realities of misrule grind on Lagosians year after year, many are still living in the squalid and poverty-ridden areas of Ajegunle, Okokomaiko, Badagry, Ikorodu, Epe, Alimosho, Lagos Island, Lekki, Bariga, Shomolu, Ketu, Ojo and so on. The sadder reality is that most of the people living in such slum conditions have no hope in the next 50 years of being pulled out of poverty as they continue to suffer acute lack of electricity, potable water, decent accommodation, health and education facilities, gainful jobs and more, due their total oppression by the political elites.
So, right-thinking stakeholders are now asking: where are the so-called acclaimed massive developmental projects being trumpeted by the APC government to deceive voters for a second term when life still is short, hard and brutish in the state for most residents? Curiously, in this same ‘centre of excellence’, consultants to the state government collect over 50 billion naira annually in various commissions for taxes and other levies collected on behalf of the state. Multiple taxation that kills businesses is the order of the day, with all kangaroo kinds of consultants such as in inland revenue, tenement rates, land use charge, advert isement, telecom infrastructure, power infrastructure approvals, building permits, fund raising, markets, abattoir and transport unions all oppressing and fleecing Lagosians of their hard earned income. But where is all the money going into? Where is accountability for our commonwealth? Isn’t it time Lagosians woke up and demand concrete answers as the next elections approach fast?
The Labour Party governorship team of Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour (GRV) and his Deputy is firmly of the view that in every four years of an APC government, over N100 billion is frittered away in special fees payable to consultants and other politically backed rent seekers. When this is coupled with an over bloated and corrupt contracting process, inflated figures by various ministries, plus the state capture by the political leader, his agents and government officials of the land assets of the state, it can be boldly affirmed that over two trillion Naira has been wasted and diverted to some people’s pockets in the last twenty years of the APC government. That is the same massive amount of money that would have helped provide educational scholarships, world-class healthcare, affordable houses, potable water and the creation of millions of jobs for the most disadvantaged, marginalized people of the state.
However, all hope is not lost. That is why GRV’s message is that Lagosians must take their fate in their hands and seize their chance in 2023! We have been taken for a ride for too long. If elected, the GRV government will declare within its first few days of office a total war on poverty. Our focus will be to create a good life and living for the lowest income earning Lagosians and others. We will improve access to quality education, quality healthcare, clean water, affordable housing and so on. We will set up and finance skill acquisition centers for ICT in high-demand jobs and training for at least 2 million people in all the local government areas in the state, in disciplines such as fintech, programming, cybersecurity, gaming technology, data analytics, online marketing, artificial intelligence, machine learning, etc.
Also, we will deal with the miserable traffic situation by building efficient road and water transportation networks all over the state. In all, we will definitely block all leakages, rent seeking, corrupt diversion of our commonwealth, terminate all evil consulting agreements of the APC collaborators and recover our commonwealth for the entire benefits of Lagosians. We will fight the evil extortion of our traders, drivers, market women etc. Major focus of GRV administration will be on catering to a better life for artisans, lower cadre civil servants, lower cadre private sector workers, domestic workers, drivers, market women, underprivileged youths and senior citizens, unemployed folks, and all those living in the ghettos of Lagos, to give everyone a sense of belong and a good standard of living. A new beginning beckons to Lagosians. GRV is ready and prepared to take Lagosians to the next level. Join us!

You're a untested, unproven and so I'll fit. Go and become councillor chairman first
We all know why you scoured through the internet for this. No where did the piece mentioned ibos as owners of Lagos except as slaves in benin kingdom so rhere fore ibo land is also no mans land .osu man cannot I say it again cannot rule over the yorubas. Watch for serious push back politically
Fut9ure: Now the whole world should ask yorubas what happened? Buhari was travelling for medical check up non stop and the whole Nigerians were crying and regretting why we should have someone old and sick as president especially the yorubas were saying he should just hand over to a vibrant Osinbajo
Now what happened? Why is it that we have even a more vibrant obi but the yorubas chose even a more weaker and mentally and physically unfit tinubu suffering parkinson disease with dementia not aware of his environment Knowing fully well that the seat of the president is for someone who is mentally and physically fit capable of being aware of whatever is going on in ondo, edo, sokoto and ebonyi
Tinubu's mental unfitness is viral and global around the world..Indians, Ghanaian, Americans everybody are aware
It means a Yoruba man will be ashamed of themselves around the world now whenever they want to say that their normal useless talk of them being the most accommodating, Liberal and most educated 😉 😀 😜 😄
They can no longer say it especially the people of Ekiti state
caracas: Nigerians should get ready for the mother of all protests , If the result of the Supreme Court goes the same way as the inec results ….Trust me this country will not survive what will hit it if those Supreme Court chickens fumble….
The question is very simple. Which country?? Or you mean biafra land
Na who do una like this?? Why is hate and bigotry your trademark because it will be very difficult for an ibo man ever to win a truly national election
9jvirgin: Return the people's mandate you stole. The people do not want you. You are a thief, a rogue, and you will be disgraced. May 29th will not happen. Mark these words!
TinubuShet: Finally it make front page, Gbadebo Chinedu is omo ale, product of night stand of an asewo woman from East with randy Rhodes Vivour , He will never come close to Alausa, he is also Biafra apologist, never, I don't want to sit at home on Monday morning
Notice how the vivour family openly endorsed Sanwo olu
I really like you, and I will like to see you continue your work from where you stopped, but the people have the final say...
The same people of Eti-Osa you keep punishing with huge tax are the same people you are begging for vote.
Where were you when we are also begging you to reduce your high ended policy, that keeps making things over difficult for us....
You keep introducing different policy, just to milk us dry, LASPA and different agency without listening to us, I know how many times I have to go to your various agency office to be begging including Alausa
My fellow Yoruba brothers were mocking Sunday Igboho when DSS attacked his house in an attempt to assasinate him. They mocked Yoruba nation agitators just for fighting Yoruba course.
Herdsmen ransacked some part of Ibarapa local government in Ibadan, my fellow Yorubas started attacking Sunday Igboho for standing up to Killer Herdsmen. Yoruba interest was not paramount to them then.
When Osinbajo indicated interest to contest for Presidency, Yoruba interest Yoruba ronu was not paramount. It was even fellow Yorubas talking him down. Calling him all sort of names. He is Judas, he is Omo ale, he is this, he is that.
But when Kolu decided its his turn, they started saying Yoruba Agenda. Its time for Yoruba. So Obasanjo is not Yoruba. He did 8years. Osinbajo a Yoruba man also did 8years as VP. So what Yoruba turn are we talking about. Must it be Kolu? Must baba Kolu be president?
Now Lagos election is next week. They started calling some of us Omo ale for voting Labour Party. They are blaming us for selling lagos to Ibos.
My dear Yoruba brothers, you can not eat your cake and have it back. You are anti-Yoruba nation, you stood for One Nigeria. If you are standing for One Nigeria, then Lagos is One Nigeria. Lagos was the former FCT. So all tribes in Nigeria have stakes in it. Thats why we fought for Yoruba nation so that we can be in control of our lands and seas. But you said its one Nigeria you want. Lagos is One Nigeria, so any tribe should be able to govern it.
Then come Gbadebo Vivor. They are claiming he is Igbo. Gbadebo father is an Aboriginal Yoruba people of Lagos. Gbadebo father is more Lagosian than Tinubu who came from Osun state. Ekiti, Osun, Ibadan people be claiming Omo Onile in Lagos. The real Yoruba settlers in Lagos can as well tell you to go back to your states.
Thats how one owala from Iseyin with his Ilu oke ascent was asking me for omo onile money when i was decking my house. Y'all will be put in your places next saturday election.
Shey elegbon ni...ema to kogbon
Put this into your covetous, hateful heart that any Yoruba from Dahomey to Brazil can claim Lagos state.but not iyamirin. No ibo man can lay claim in any guise to Lagos. You're all guests and migrants and can never rule your host
opamoses1: Why even bother argue with these people. The bigot and Yoruba hating bastard will be sent back to Anambara. He can keep loving his IPOB and ESN family in the East.
raskymonojendor: Davido has never insulted the Yoruba, Banky W never insulted the Yoruba, Desmond Elliot never insulted the Yoruba, Governor Adeleke never insulted the Yoruba, but this IPOB apologist deserves all the heat coming his way for using the Slurs and deriding the Yorubas.
I voted for Peter Obi but my vote is for Sanwo Olu this time around.
