The Labour Party governorship candidate in Lagos, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour (GRV) has slammed his opponent, Abdul-Azeez Adediran (Jandor) of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) hours to the March 18 governorship election.
In recent days, there have been a series of speculations over an alleged alliance between GRV and Jandor ahead of the much-anticipated governorship election. There were speculations that the Labour Party governorship candidate has agreed to step down for the PDP candidate.
However, we reported that Labour Party had issued a statement earlier today to insist that GRV remains a contestant in the governorship race and called on the party’s supporters to vote for him.
As a follow-up to the lengthy statement, GRV took to his verified Twitter page earlier today to describe Jandor as a “dying horse”.
The LP governorship candidate wrote, “I have read the fabricated lies from the Jandor camp and I will like to assure our supporters that we are not only leading the race we are winning. Consider his many scripts and tantrums the last kick of a dying horse.”
The Labour Party governorship candidate, GRV, and that of the PDP, Jandor, are the major contenders against the incumbent governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu of the All Progressives Congress for Saturday’s guber polls.
