The Lagos Governorship candidate, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour alias GRV, is faced with severe backlash as an IPOB apologist following the resurfacing of his old tweets.

GRV who is the Labour Party Governorship candidate in the election slated for 11th March 2023 had campaigned in 2019 for a senatorial position with the name Chinedu Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour which struck nerves on Twitter.

Following campaign posters from 2019 that circulated the micro-blogging platform, old tweets from the Labour Party’s candidate resurfaced with claims of his zeal for the separatist group, Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB).
