2027: Rhodes-Vivour Confident of Lagos Victory Without Obi’s Support
Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, the ADC governorship candidate in Lagos, says he can win the 2027 election without direct backing from Peter Obi or the Obidient movement. He told a national TV programme that his campaign now rests on years of grassroots engagement across the state. Rhodes-Vivour explained that his team has built community structures and offered solutions on issues like demolitions. He believes this independent foundation can challenge the ruling APC, even while acknowledging Obi’s role in the 2023 polls. He dismissed rumours of a rift with Obi, calling him “a fantastic candidate” and affirming their cordial relationship. Rhodes-Vivour added that the ADC’s broad opposition coalition in Lagos is key to ending the APC’s long-standing control.
