The All Progressive Congress (APC) has slammed Labour Party gubernatorial candidate Gbadebo Chinedu Rhodes-Vivour over his derogatory comments as the ruling party seems to be enjoying a cruise in the gubernatorial election results so far.
APC spokesman, Seye Oladejo described Gbadebo Chinedu Rhodes-Vivour as a bad loser who lacks the sport of sportsmanship.
“The attention of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has been drawn to a statement made by Labour Party (LP) governorship candidate Gbadebo Chinedu Rhodes-Vivour on today’s elections.
“He accuses the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) and the police of ‘provoking Lagosians’ and warning that ‘if tonight Lagos catches fire, it is not our fault’. He says ‘a lot of places are still under attack by thugs and hooligans of the APC’.
“This scaremongering is typical of bad losers who lack the spirit of sportsmanship.”
“Should there be any breakdown of law and order in any part of our state, law enforcement agencies should know who to grab – Rhodes-Vivour.
“We are compiling reports of how APC supporters were harassed and attacked today. Some of the reports are really scary. Now the LP candidate is playing the victim.
“This old trick won’t work; discerning Lagosians know they are all lies deployed to attract sympathy. Our party does not need to be violent because we are sure of the glittering credentials of our candidate Babajide Olusola Sanwo-Olu who will never be associated with violence,” he said
