*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.

“Would the Igbo allow any Yoruba man to do such a thing in the east?”
