Rhodes-Vivour Has Every Right To Contest But …… – Oba Of Lagos
Rilwan Akiolu, Oba of Lagos, commended Labour Party Governorship Candidate Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour on Thursday for contesting because he has every right to do so.
However, the monarch emphatically stated his support for Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, whom he believes will win the election on Saturday, March 18.
Speaking during the LP candidate’s visit to the monarch’s palace, Akiolu, who prayed for Rhodes-Vivour and wished him well in his future endeavors, maintained that there was nothing wrong with Rhodes-Vivour running.
The monarch stated that he has a bright future, but that he will not be able to win this election.
“Please, don’t relent after this contest but I am fully behind Sanwo-Olu,” he told Rhodes-Vivour.
Akiolu commended Sanwo-Olu for the many giant strides he has recorded as governor, noting he became governor as the most difficult time in the state.
“I am not an hero worshipper and gossiper. For Gbadebo, the future is open to you. God will not kill you, there is nothing wrong in you contesting. All of those contesting are my children.
“I pray by the authority in this palace, God should help us to turn the state better. There is no way I can hate the igbos because they are among my best friend.”
The monarch doused the fears expressed by some residents that there would be violence during the election.
He added: “By the grace of God, there would be no trouble. All the false prophets, I am just looking at them. Everything is in the hands of God and within six months of Tinubu, there would be glaring progress.”
Akiolu implored all residents of the state to come out to vote and be peaceful in performing their rights.
He also noted that the majority of politicians are after personal benefits and not after improving society or serving the people.
