Hehehehehehe......
We all know 'Gbarebo' is yoruba.
So rest!

SIRTee15:
Someone that used slur words on Yoruba people.
Hates speaking Yoruba and has never open his mouth to say he's Yoruba.

Abeg, it's not by name but by action.
Gbadebo wasn't raised as Yoruba.

emmanuelson20:
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.

seunmsg:
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.

EmperorCaesar:


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.

Bookhub:
No need sheyi is our next governor

kingamaa:
He who sells his people will not find enough money to buy them back when he needs them.

Trying desperately to belong now when all the while he alienated them.

Too late

wifeesnatcher:
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.

Nwokem, we all know 'Gbarebo' is yoruba.

Jagaban2012:
An average Ibo man with signs of deception and falsehood. Out of all the Ibo leaders, you only chose two. One of them is deceased, while the other is an elderly man....
These two men you mentioned have no political value in Ibo land, and while they may be respected, they have their limits, unlike Zik and Ojukwu.

Emeka Anyaoku's diplomatic career is far removed from the Ibo political path. He has nothing to lose by marrying outside the Ibo region because he does not intend to pursue a political career in Ibo land.

The second person on your list is Osita Chidoka, who is simply a Highlife musician who sings for people that Matters in Ibo land...tell me the significance of Osita Chidoka other than his music career. .

Jagaban2012:
The Yoruba people are follow the marriage Style of Pa Awolowo. ..we are proud of him for marrying from his.State of Origin

YoungBlackRico:
O ga that one concern you and your family.

flokii:
The man should hide his head in shame.. he is claiming Gbadebo is Yoruba but all his posts and comments (with evidence) are anti-Yoruba..
We won't allow an IPOB apologist ruin the gain our forefathers have made over the years. Let Gbadebo relocate to Anambra and contest for Governor there since he has part Anambra blood.

flokii:
You can see from the interview that he has no control over the wife, same thing with Late Akeredolu of Ondo State.
Any Yoruba man married to Igbo woman is usually an efulefu with no control over their home.. go and verify.

Nnamdipapa:
He actually is free to contest wherever he chooses as a Nigerian, people may decide not to vote for him which is their rights. You cannot tell him where to context.

lockheed55:
He is truely Yoruba. I grew up with him in Ikeja. He is a true leader.

Zuckembego:
Both are correct.
Old and new Yoruba words

flokii:
Would you say the same thing for say Emeka Abiola Izuchukwu with Yoruba mother that doesn't think in Igbo aspiring to become Governor of Anambra State?.
The father should bring DNA result, we want to check something. Chinedu Rhodes-Vivour is not a Yoruba man.

Nnamdipapa:
We can All see that we are all tribalist in this country. I am not asking you to vote for him, but telling him he has no rights to contest in Lagos is the heights of idiocy. I believe some of you went to school but tribalism make most odmf you sound like functional illiterates.

If you hate him, that's fine, we don't have to like everyone, I have people I hate myself but attacking him because of his mother's origin is simply stupid.

Do not vote for him and, it will still be fine. We cannot claim to be lovers of Nigeria and unabashedly tribalist at the same time.

We have to chose one or the other.

casualobserver:
Clearly you didn’t raise your son well and you can see the problem with Gbadebo’s upbringing in that interview. The mother will not even allow the man to talk without interjecting.

Be careful the wives you marry and more importantly the type of mother you give your children!

UltraSolid:
Is something wrong with you mentally? How many things has Shinedu done and said that shows he despises Yorubas he wants to lead yet you dishonestly chose to ignore that, because you are born without principles, to make it appear he is being discriminated against because of his Igbo mother?

You people are so shameless and unprincipled. Especially considering you would be baying for blood if what Shinedu is doing to Yorubas is done by a Yoruba-Igbo who wants to lead an Igbo states yet makes it obvious daily he hates his Igbo half and only reps his Yoruba lineage.

You people are nauseating abeg.

Nnamdipapa:
Yes, he is free to contest in Anambra my hometown. I do not have any rights over another Nigerian and the only power I have is to canvass against him and not to vote for him.
Last elections, Tribalism was wielded as a political weapon but elections are past now.
Don't vote for him, canvass against him if you must and that is withing your rights but tribalism is a double edged sword which we must stop if we want a better country.

Gospel truth ✌️✊

flokii:
You might not have a problem with that but most Igbos will.. they'll start checking from the great grandfather to know whether or not he is Igbo enough to become their Governor.
Let's not pretend about these things.. Chinedu will never win any election in Lagos State with all his posts, comments and ethnic slurs against Yoruba people.

Nnamdipapa:
Yes I get your points, that is why you should not vote for him. Also tell your friends not to vote for him.

Mispronouncing his name name as "shinedu" is self serving and tribalists.

You will not be happy if I type "Gbola Tilumbu" for example and, you cannot tell him not to contest. We have to train our minds to think properly if we are to have a better country.
Loving Nigeria and being a tribalist cannot co-exist under same roof. We don't have to like everyone.
