APC Challenges ADC's Rhodes-Vivour on Lagos Governance Insight
The Lagos chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has criticized the African Democratic Congress (ADC) governorship candidate, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, for focusing solely on learning the Yoruba language instead of demonstrating a comprehensive understanding of Lagos and its governance challenges. APC's publicity secretary, Seye Oladejo, acknowledged Rhodes-Vivour's efforts to learn the language but questioned his engagement with the culture, history, and socio-economic realities of the state.
Oladejo suggested that Rhodes-Vivour should complement his language lessons with a deeper understanding of Lagos governance. He defended the experience of APC's governorship candidate, Kadri Obafemi Hamzat, who is the incumbent deputy governor and has served in various capacities within the Lagos state government.
The APC also urged Rhodes-Vivour to provide specific proposals for addressing Lagos's transportation challenges, rather than merely criticizing the current administration's record.
