The 2023 Lagos governorship candidate for the Labour Party, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, has hinted on his plan to run for the 2027 election in the state.

Rhodes-Vivour while speaking on Channels Television’s Politics Today said he has not given up on becoming a governor in Lagos State.

At the interview which aired on Thursday, January 2, Rhodes-Vivour said his ambition is to lead the people of Lagos.

“By God’s grace, yes,” Rhodes-Vivour said.

He, however, did not state if he would be leaving his party (LP) to contest under a different party in 2027.

“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,” he said.

Rhodes-Vivour contested the 2023 governorship election in Lagos state under the platform od the Labour Party.

He was in the face with the incumbent governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu of the All Progressives Congress and other party candidates.
