Obatala worshippers are giving chieftaincy titles nowadays, we play too much nowadays in this country sha.

Chinedu Gbadebo, congratulations anyway.

No wonder he always wears white. So the guy is an Obatala worshipper

The day he becomes Governor in Yorubaland, I will deactivate my nairaland , renounce my religion and convert to Ogun worship.

Gbadebo, you are from Ogun State not Lagos State!

Quarterpast:
He's not aligning with PETER OBI much and it's not healthy enough

He should be going about carrying Peter Obi's bags to show that he is aligning with him abi?

Most Badagry people don't really vote for APC . If you know about Lagos politics. So Vivor can get some votes there. If he play is card intelligently.

And lastly, Rhodes vivor cannot be the governor of Lagos. His story will be like Jimi Agbaje .

Congrats to him

Sheuns:
Badagry for a long time has always been opposition to APC/ACN.

“What message are Lagos indigenes sending?

Because every political watcher would agree that before now, no traditional ruler in Lagos would dare openly bestow a title on an opposition figure.”

Something he paid for, the babalawos that gave him the title are hungry, if you have money
They will give you one too, nothing special.

This is not from the King of badagry but some Obatala followers. Irrelevant title.

Follow the money.

Chinedu changed his name to Gbadebo....

He used Chinedu in 2019, when contesting for senate.

We can't be deceived.

Go and contest in Anambra.

You've been consistently told that Lagos is not a Yoruba land and at the most a no man's land, and you're troubling yourself.
For emphasis, Lagos is not a Yoruba land.
That was the Oba ( not even an ethnic Yoruba ) confirming a title on GRV ( the same person Afon*jas claim is not Yoruba). Go figure.

Then bring your family house down here from here since Lagos is all Igbo family house



It seems majority of you people are bloody illiterates. It's very hard to separate educated and uneducated igbbo


That's how you use your useless bragging caused the employement your kinsmen into Lagos state civil service which my wife is a victim. Monkey people, anyone that see you mumu bragging won't know your east is a glorified village. All these unexposed villagers

Anyone that's competent is fit to rule Lagos except or course someone that bouth Yoruba tribe and that's why this Chinedu can never become anything in Lagos, even if he contest as house of assembly we will resist him


He's better to be holding his new elected post Ambassador of Obatala unopposed

Sheuns:
Badagry for a long time has always been opposition to APC/ACN.

💯 FACT

You meant to say bestow chieftaincy title on an outcast!

Gbadebo Rhodes is one politician I respect so much,very civil,a gentleman to the core,very focused,puts in manifold efforts in whatever he sets out to achieve and doesn't pretend about it.
If such a guy becomes the governor of Lagos,with all the potentials in Lagos,this guy will in few years turn Lagos to the next Dubai or say Singapore.
Very youthful,full of Energy,relates very well with the grassroot!He is the man of the people!

This one go receive title from deity worshippers dey broadcast am like he got chieftancy title from a king . How would omo ale who doesn't hide his aversion to speaking the language of his fathers know better.. Well , I guess congratulations are in order to the Tala of Obatala kingdom. .
Ndi ala

Isn't he supposed to be an igbo man?

Gbadebo himself is not a fool . He knows the same people crying over his political career are same people that took over everything that belonged to original Lagos state indigenes calling them slaves from Liberia and Sierra Leone . What he is facing is very small compared to what Bucknor Akerele and Ambode faced from the hate filled ursupers but in the end justice and light will always win over darkness

You can be conferred with any tittle be it academic,honourary or traditional by any traditional ruler or religious head as the case my be outside your domain that found you worthy.

Is President Bola Tinubu not the 'Jagaban' of Borgu,a community in one of the northern state,was he a northerner.

He was merely recognized as ambassador for Obatala worship. Otherwise a new initiate into the server if Obatala. Obalefun Agbaiye the title looks suspicious. Who are the previous holders of the title. Does traditional worshippers wear crown. I sensed it is part of 2027 preparation to gain for his governorship ambition. Good luck to him.

Traditional religion (worshippers) are more morally upright and have and profess love for their neighbors unlike the others

Just imagine, somebody whose ancestors always pick forbidden yams from the evil forest since 1945, and arranging them for survival of their cannibalistic Osu community, is the one putting mouth on Yorùbá matters.

Was it not from the same Badagry that his great-grandfathers were chained as slaves & shipped to the white man's land to work in their plantations?

That’s why I said it’s like the indigenous people of Lagos are sending some subtle message.

thank God he doesn't push drug like your god.

What difference does it make when many of his mother's kinsmen and women are languishing in foreign prisons for drug offences while his maternal people are busy establishing baby factories everywhere

He is desperate. Even Azikiwe ed Ogboni when he was eyeing Lagos too. Azikiwe is from Anambra just like IPOB apologist GRV's mum.
