Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, the Labour Party’s (LP) candidate for governor in Lagos State, has promised that, if elected on March 18, his administration will end the state’s “Agbero” system of touts and thugs.
He made the promise while addressing at the Youth O’clock breakfast event held by the “Obidient Movement” in Ikeja GRA, Lagos. He also vowed that the Labour Party would oppose any intimidation or harassment of voters.
He emphasized that the mission to free Lagos from the restraints keeping the state down encompassed the event.
The people of Lagos desire effective government regardless of the language a leader speaks or the tribe he belongs to, Rhodes-Vivour remarked in response to the assertions that he is not a Yoruba man and that he does not understand Yoruba.
He claimed to be a true cosmopolitan Lagosian with Yoruba roots who received his education at one of the top institutions in the world.
Lagos has traditionally been a peaceful place, according to the LP candidate, but politicians stir up ethnic tension in order to split the state’s citizens.
