Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, the Labour Party candidate for the 2023 governorship election in Lagos State, has declared his intention to run for governor in the state once again in 2027.
During an appearance on Channels Television’s Politics Today, Rhodes-Vivour expressed his belief that he may run for the governorship seat in 2027 with the help of God’s grace.
Asked about the chances of running for governor, Rhodes-Vivour said: “By God’s grace, yes.
“I believe that if all parties do not come together, it is going to be a waste of time running in 2027 because there is a full state capture happening in this country now.
“We cannot afford for the opposition to be separate. For now, my job is to ensure that I have a strong party – Labour Party.”
Despite coming in second in the 2023 governorship election, with 312,329 votes compared to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu’s 762,134 votes, Rhodes-Vivour has not given up on his goal of becoming the governor of Lagos State.
