The Labour Party’s Lagos Governorship candidate, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, alias GRV, has been criticized on social media over the inconsistency in his name.

GRV, who is contesting against the incumbent governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, and other candidates, has been subjected to heavy public scrutiny since he launched his campaign.

This time, the politician has been called out for using different names to suit his ‘selfish’ agendas.

They pointed out that when he was campaigning for a Senatorial seat in Lagos state in 2019, he used his Igbo name “Chinedu Rhodes-Vivour”, in a bid to seemingly appeal to the Igbo populace in the community.

For his governorship candidacy, he used his Yoruba name “Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour” because he wants to get the favour of Lagosians as a whole.

In a new development, following the skepticism that trailed his status as a graduate of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), he posted a photo of his certificate which carried the name “Partick Rhodes-Vivour” and it has caused a buzz online.

He captioned it,

“Dear Lagosians, in line with my desire to run a transparent and open government.

Here is my certificate from
@MIT

I will continue to be open and transparent, especially with my government and governance.

Vote LP 🗳, You can do it, We can do it.

Èkó E dìde!!

~ GRV.”
