What happened in Lagos was war, not election – LP’s Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour

The 2023 Labour Party candidate for the just concluded
gubernatorial election in Lagos State, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, has insisted what
happened in the state was a war, not a poll.

 

Speaking on Arise Television’s morning show on Friday,
Rhodes-Vivour also said that the responsibility of the Independent National
Electoral Commission (INEC) must improve amid the election’s conduction.

 

Rhodes-Vivour said, “What happened in Lagos was a war on
Lagosians no matter how they want to colour it or module the waters.

 

“In Ikoyi, there were Yoruba people who were beaten and
affected by thugs and hooligans that came into the place.

 

“Look at what happened VCG as well and the complicity of
INEC as well in this process need to be taken up so that If they want to try
anything next time they would do things differently, give a perception of
equity, fairness and justice, not these brazing rip over democracy in Lagos
State.”

 

The INEC had in March declared Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu
of the All Progressives Congress, APC, as the winner of the Lagos gubernatorial
election.

 

Sanwo-Olu scored a total of 762,134 to defeat the first
runner-up, the Labour Party’s Rhodes-Vivour, who polled 312,329 votes, while
Abdulazeez Adeniran of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, got 62,449 votes.
