Group Extols Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour's Virtues at 41

A socio-cultural group, Njiko Umunne Social Club of Nigeria, has congratulated the Labour Party's (LP) Governorship candidate in Lagos State in the March 18, 2023 election, Mr. Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour as he turned 41 years yesterday.

In a statement signed by the Club's Chairman, Chief Ugochukwu Udo Chukwuocha and Secretary, Uche Offor, respectively, they said Rhodes-Vivour represents a special and enviable breed of the younger generation of Nigerians determined on enthroning accountability, probity and good governance in the country.

The statement further added that Rhodes-Vivour, an accomplished architect, exhibited the virtues of tenacity of purpose, doggedness, commitments and conviction for a better Lagos during his electioneering campaign as a governorship candidate in the state.

The group also lauded the calmness and maturity Rhodes-Vivour displayed during the Election Tribunal’s proceedings, and the ruling which eventually turned in favour of his APC contender, Governor Babajide

Sanwo Olu, which showed he never played the 'do or die' brand of politics.

The statement added: "As we celebrate with you as you mark 41 years,let it be on record that you fought a good fight in your conviction to govern Lagos State.

“Moreover, your political journey so far has shown that you are cut out as a game changer, and a role model for the teeming younger generation who now see in you as a man of courage and conviction who remained unshaken despite all the threats and intimidation by your political opponents to jettison your governorship ambition.”
