Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, the Labour Party governorship candidate in the 2023 general elections, has said that poverty is not selective of party affiliations when it attacks a group of people.
GRV, as he is fondly referred to, said this on his X handle today November 15 while reacting to a video of an elderly man who voted for President Tinubu and now says he cannot pray for the President.
In the trending video, the elderly man who appears to be a commercial driver said he went out to vote for President Tinubu during the election and was almost beaten up where he went to vote.
He told the man who was recording him that he cannot pray for the President as the President has destroyed his home. When asked how the President destroyed his home, he said.
‘’If my wife and children have not seen food to eat, is my house not already scattered?’’
Reacting to the video, GRV said he expects the APC South West members to reach out to the leaders to understand that Nigeria is currently hard, people are suffering and that funds should be pulled for social intervention and systematic solutions.
He went on to add that now is not the time to renovate any Presidential Guest House.
