The truth is that a name only does not define you. Allegiance, loyalty and expression is very key to identity. There are people with Chinese names and ancestors who owe full allegiance to the USA. They will betray China on a whim!

GRV, our Igbo brother....the next governor of Lagos state come 2027, Insha Allahu!
Before an Igbo man becomes Lagos Governor, Yorubas would be Governors of your 5 tiny states in your backwards region.

We could see you love freedom, the reason why you take directives from a fugitive in far away Norway and IPOB terrorists and cannibals to sit at home and cripple your region. Hypocrite!

Continue being foolish like your ancestors.

Your fathers were selling ice water when Lagos bridges were built.
Today, you are selling gala and charger while the light rail projects are going on.
Your children will be labourers in this Lagos.

Re: Gbadebo Is Yoruba, Named by My Father – Olawale Rhodes Vivour (GRV’s Father) by UltraSolid:
Lol. I wonder how a so-called "Yoruba" can speak Igbo fluently while being unable to speak Yoruba at all. How will Shinedu recover from mocking his supposed Yoruba kinsmen as "Afonjas", siding with and praising IPOB and then boldly stating "I don't think in Yoruba" while wanting to lead a Yoruba State.

If not that Igbos are patently unprincipled and covetous people, can they allow the equivalent in Igboland same as they are promoting Shinedu for Lagos? I.e a chap with Igbo and Yoruba parentage who wants to lead Anambra or Imo yet daily denigrates Igbos and even trolls them saying "I don't think in Igbo".

Shinedu is done in Lagos politics. Even local government chairmen he cannot become now that he has shown his anti-Yorubas agenda and staunch Igbo loyalty. Yorubas now realise that allowing Shinedu to ascend even the lowest rung of the leadership ladder in Yoruba land would be tantamount to making Igbo supremacist like Azikiwe, Charles Onyeama, Nnamdi Kanu etal the Governor of Lagos.

God is great with how he used Shinedu to send 'woke' Yorubas a powerful and timely message about naively allowing infiltration of enemies-within pretending to be Yorubas.

Are you arguing with the father of a child what his son's name is?

What is the name of Tinubu's father? We only know his mother
His dad can make whatever claim he wants. Yorubas are not mannerless and uncouth to elders like those that wake their grandparents up with kicks and slaps. Therefore we cannot insult Shinedu's dad.

Suffice to say our Uncle does not know his sons antics, or wishes to feign ignorance of it, that has made most Yorubas conclude Shinedu is never Gbadebo or indeed a true brother to any Yoruba.

lol. His grandfather named him Gbadebo but there is no Gbadebo on all his school certificates. Even his birth record had to be altered to reflect Gbadebo.
Dunno where the guy made mistake. But there are reports of him using slurs against his people in the past. He even talked about a popular clergy in a demeaning way. Lagos is Yorubaland and anyone that isn't ready to do will of his people will have issues. I don't like cheating but some facts are sacrosanct

We (Yoruba people) simply do not go around disrespecting our elders. We are not cockroaches.
The last time I checked the label called OMOLUABI isn't from Onitsha or Abia, but belongs to the Yoruba people 100%. Abeg, allow the mother to go find her baby daddy in Aguata, Anambra... Peter Obi should feel free to help.

Gbadebo Chinedu Patrick Rhodes-Vivour is a dynamic individual with a rich cultural heritage. His father is Yoruba, while his mother is of Igbo descent, reflecting Nigeria's diverse ethnic tapestry. Married to Dr. Ifeyinwa Rhodes-Vivour, who is also Igbo, Gbadebo has embraced his maternal heritage by becoming fluent in Igbo. Interestingly, despite his Yoruba roots, he does not speak Yoruba.

Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour imagines a Lagos where all ethnic groups are respected and empowered, fostering inclusivity and prosperity. He emphasizes the importance of sustainable development, accountable governance, and a strong opposition to promotes progress for every Lagosian.

As a visionary leader, Gbadebo seeks to become the Governor of Lagos State, driven by his desire to bring about positive change and unity in one of Nigeria's most influential regions.
Lagos is Yorubaland. There's no way that state will accommodate other roots before first considering Yorubas. He shouldn't have been too far from his home. Nigerian tribes don't love each others genuinely so nobody should blame Yorubas for holding tight to their Lagos.
That is how every tribes act. This Chinedu cannot contest and win in his mother's state nor his sisters. In fact, his mother can't win in her state. If it's a lie, let them contest and see first class tribalism from their fellow tribes. It's reality of present day Nigeria that's not integrating.

Lol. That gaffe alone, that reveals his true colours and allegiance, he can never recover from in the eyes of Yorubas who are enduringly principled.

Unlike those who will marry their daughter to you for a large sums of money even if you are the same person who killed their son and the brother of the bride.

Yorubas are ready for Shinedu and Igbos in 2027. That is the year Igbos will know you never show your hand unless you are sure you can win.

I personally warned Igbos they were digging their own grave in the lead-up to the Lagos 2023 guber election with their pro-Shinedu antics that involved heavy insult and denigration of Yorubas to include claims they now own Lagos and are more in the State than Yorubas.

It was easy to work out that if Shinedu lost then Igbos, having shown their agenda of covetousness and usurpation, are fcked forever in Lagos or for the foreseeable future anyway. That is precisely where we are today.

Gbadebo being Yoruba or not is not the bone of contention, what's hurting the dude was his past statement against Yoruba Nation


If you Iggbo have a working brain you will understand that obi won Lagos, and many Igbo have reps in election, if they had used derogatory words on Yorubas no one would have vote for them


Can you igbo even elect ebonyi that talk good of Anambra as anambra governor not to talk of talking bad


My woman is Igbo and if my kids talk against my tribe they should vote against them.
So you have the audacity to marry Igbo while spewing this statement.... It amazes me why my women easily fall for una antics and accept marriage
Honestly it baffles me

Useless expose!

He lost an election like every other losers in the last election, as there was always gonna be one winner in the end, and judging by what Sanwo-Olu has done so far, those in Lagos made a sound choice.





He is Yoruba yet frequently used tribal slur on his own people. Even if he's the son of Alaafin, that he denigrated his own tribe means they will always reject him.
His father needs to recall the Yoruba proverb that says - “one who loathes identification with his father’s people must be a bastard!” He should do a DNA test to confirm paternity. That woman looks and sounds like a trouble maker!

Precisely Bro. If an elder is displaying error of Judgement, as Shinedu's dad is showing, then we will respectfully agree to disagree with him without insult.

Of course he is duty-bound to support his son and tout his 'Yorubaness' but we proper Yorubas see Shinedu as a traitor with a nefarious agenda for wanting to be Governor.

We therefore won't join issues with Shinedu's dad but the powers-that-be will simply do the needful, haven identified Shinedu to be an enemy-within 100%, to ensure the political career of his son, in Lagos, is dead and buried.

That's how Yorubas work with devotion to principles and without noise. 2027 will be fun 😎😎💯

Then don't complain, when igbos refuse to partake in any elections. I was in my shop doing biz, a Yoruba customer entered and began pricing my items, all of a sudden he then began to rant in the name of pleading that....... Igbos shouldn't call for Biafra and referendum that they're treated fairly in a United That they're more accepted in Nigeria than being isolated in Biafra and e.t.c.


Why did he began such pleading? Look if we're being denied our seat I. Asorock. No wahala, is just I don't want a situation where FG will utter a state of emergency when ipob and Igbo will refuse to exercise our voting right

Goodluck

Don't vote. No one cares and FG will certainly not declare a State of emergency over the matter. Or have you seen any State of emergency declaration over Sit-at-home, of several years, Kanu and Ekpa have foisted on you Lot?

Have I mocked the medical condition of any elderly political leader like those who sang "hand dey shake, leg dey shake" ungraciously against Tinubu or uncouthly described our President "demented old fool" daily?

Whatever you are looking for, keep fishing lol. Fact is that most Yorubas won't insult their elders as they would their mates. Our culture of respect does not permit us to do that. I don't expect those without a culture of respect and Omoluabi ethos to understand.
