Mr Man, i don't care about you and the 900,000 asses.

Vote who you want to vote for and stop crying all over Nairaland

y is he crying.are u the father.

Yiboo boy, but your Igbo is very fluent? You are more igbo, even your best food is akpu

Abeg make him learn , some that are born and brought up in Lagos are finding it difficult to speak Yoruba .

Buckeyemedia1:
His father is Yoruba, his mother is Igbo, he grew up in the United Kingdom & you want his father to be speaking Yoruba to him @ home?

How come speaks Igbo better ?

Breeze don blow

Go and contest for IPOB or ugm

Leadership.

His English sef na rubbish for someone who claimed to have stayed in abroad

ghana is abroad too na

But u sabi speak Igbo

Yeye boy

His judgement day is not now ..we shall all meet at the polls..

Pls don't quote me again

Vinnie2000:
Hope you know that NOT only Yorubas reside in Lagos?

Hope you know some Yorubas in Lagos (Mostly Richmen's Children) aren't Fluent in Yoruba, Just like GRV? 😒

Hope you know NOT Every Yoruba reason like You?

biaframaster200:
All the Obas are speaks Yoruba language



But I know you can't speak Yiibo fluently, a bi...




Try this nonsense in Yiibo land and see if you will succeed to become ordinary councilor in Yiibo land...

.yoruba people are too loose....

And the entire Yoruba land is easy to.collect without recourse

So he can't contest in his father's land...who are you ogbomoso refugee to tell a Lagosian what to do in his own state?? Are you a lagosian?

Dey play ooo🤣🤣🤣🤣

ImmaculateJOE:
The illiterates of the 21st century, are not those who cannot read or write, but those who cannot learn, unlearn and relearn.

GRV is down to earth and a good learner..

Good for you as you redefine illiteracy.

Oh he confesses

dedonfranco:
Can Everton fc win Champions league.....NO

Can Labour party win Lagos state........NO.

Why do you think Sanwolu is having sleepless night? Usually, Lagos is always the case of Apc vs PDP, why is no one talking about PDP this time around? The only luck Sanwolu have is the fact that INEC moved the election and temper is beginning to calm down.

Kagawa10:
Speaking the indigenous language is a prerequisite for Lagos leader! Sink that into your brain if you've got any

So if an igbo man or hausa man can speak yoruba they will be better than a yoruba man who annot speak? Tribalism makes statement sometimes seem foolish

This guy shouldn't have admitted to this ......Can you say you can't speak hausa and govern any northern states including the ones Hausa are minority....
He's shot himself on the foot big time
Does he think 24 million people of Lagos resides in the Elitist choice area of ikoyi, VI and banana Island ....
This guy is a Joker honestly he would soon become INEC regular customer for that statement he made ....
He's not politically wise at all

Reality3080:
what was he waiting for all these while?

Like fayose said, will we employ interpreter for our governor or he addresses people in English or Igbo if he needs to address people

All shades of wrong

Dude is just an opportunitist. He saw the opportunity and he jumped at it. I can assure you that Mr GRV will not even step into the slums of Lagos if he becomes governor. Dude is butty and has never mingled with common folks. Anyone who thinks he will do that as governor is in self-denial.

Buckeyemedia1:

Did he do primary and secondary in uk?

Even only primary perios is enough to teach your child.

Can he speak igbo?

Noted.

See how stupidity is smelling all over you. So how will he address the market women, the Obas, the chiefs, the rural people. How can u be speaking only a foreign language in another land?Wetin concern English phonetics in Yoruba governed land?

Gbadebo will win Lagos

You can relocate to Osun if e pain you too much

Lagos is no man’s land

Cry blood

dedonfranco:

There is a fundamental flaw in your analogy.

You have to be in the competition/race to win it.

Is Everton in the champions league? ...No. Then how can they be considered to win a competitom they aren't a part of??

Is GRV in the governorship race? ....Yes. Then he has a chance of winning becos he is a contestant.

I don't care who wins. I'm not from Lagos. But write properly next time.

The only thing our constitution requires you to have is ...the candidate most be 35 years or above ....most be a Nigerian sponsored by a political party ...there us no where it says you most know how to speak or write in yoruba or any language aside English...All this ethnic pettiness by my yoruba brothers is not good for there image ...cos people use to believe they are very educated...if educated people have resorted to this level of thinking cos of politics , then there is a problem .

Nobody disowns his child for not speaking his local language ...even in this case he speaks but not fluently...he has even hired someone to put him through . This election is all about the power of the voters . Lagosians want Gbadebo..and so shall it be
.

But you can speak Igbo fluently! Haba!

dedonfranco:

They may not win the champions league but they can stop the champions (APC) from winning the league by splitting votes......

You don't believe, check Presidential results, at least APC no talk say them rig that one

we knw your agenda in Lagos ,but trust me,we go put you guys for your lane after the governorship election

Dat is why they keep fooling u. All those are cover ups in politics. Same way they removed naira and u ppl were so happy dat tinubu doesn't have cash to spend or to bribe. They do dis policies to distract ur mind so u won’t be able to accuse them of anything. They want u to believe Sanwo olu is scared n powerless so u won’t be able to think that he has sorted the elections already. Why don’t some ppl think? Isn’t it obvious?
