*Fani-Kayode

Femi Fani-Kayode, an APC leader, has asked the Yoruba in Lagos State to work for Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s reelection as governor of the state.

Fani-Kayode made the comment while claiming that Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, a candidate for governor for the Labour Party, LP, was pursuing an anti-Yoruba, pro-Igbo campaign.

The former aviation minister claimed in a series of tweets that the LP candidate was one of those responsible for burning down buses in Lagos State as part of the EndSARS protest.

He warned that Rhodes-Vivour is hellbent on imposing Igbo agenda in Lagos State.

According to Fani-Kayode: “I make no apology for saying the following. Lagos is NOT no-man’s land. It belongs to the Yoruba.

“Other than winning the Presidency, the most important thing for the Yoruba to do is to ensure that @jidesanwoolu is re-elected as Gov. of Lagos. Outside of that we are finished as a race.

“The Labour Party candidate, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, whose mother and wife are Igbo and who is running a patently anti-Yoruba and pro-Igbo campaign, is one of those that burnt properties and buses during the Endsars riots.

“He is also in bed with IPOB and is hell-bent on imposing an unashamedly Igbo agenda on the people of Lagos state including removing all our Yoruba traditional rulers and imposing Igbo ones.
