Afenifere Committee of Indigenes of Lagos State, endorse Labour Party’s Rhodes-Vivour

The Pan-Yoruba Socio-cultural Group, Afenifere and the Committee of Indigenes of Lagos State on Wednesday declared support for the Labour Party (LP) governorship candidate in Lagos state,  Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour.

The groups officially declared support for Rhodes-Vivour at a news conference in Ikeja.

Speaking on behalf of the groups, Chief Supo Shonibare, the Afenifere Leader in Lagos State, expressed the groups’ gratitude to the people of Lagos for the victory accorded the presidential candidate of the party, Mr Peter Obi, on Feb. 25 poll.

According to him, LP’s feat was made possible by the determination of young voters, even in low-density areas of Lagos State.

“It is believed that with INEC’s assurance of a better performance in the governorship poll on Saturday, March 18, 2023, the procedure for voting and uploading results through the BVAs will be seamless and in real-time.

“Afenifere hereby enjoins all men and women of goodwill to turn out en masse on Saturday to vote for Architect Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour – a scion of the illustrious Rhodes-Vivour family of Lagos, whose family ancestry and pivotal contribution to the affairs of Lagos dates back to five generations.
