In a counter-attack, the standard-bearer of the Labour Party in Saturday’s gubernatorial poll, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour (GRV) has said there can never be healing without justice following the electoral violence that marred the polls in the State.
This comes on the heels of Bola Tinubu’s call for healing after the elections.
But, in a swift response, the LP candidate said his party will explore all available legal options to address alleged injustices that marred the governorship and assembly polls in the State.
Speaking during a world press conference on Wednesday, Rhodes-Vivour vowed to fight the outcome of the polls he termed “injustice” with all legal means.
“Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu called for healing yesterday, but healing cannot happen without justice. The APC unleashed evil on Lagosian, diabolically with their fetish rites and curses during the day, and physical violence against all Lagosian, yet they want the peace of a graveyard, they want the healing of the dead.
“This was no election, it was violence on multiple levels, diabolically and physically.
“On this ambition, they sowed seeds that could potentially lead to outcome like the Rwandan genocide. Lagosian, our enemy are not our neighbors or visitors, or fellow Lagosian with diverse tongues. Our common enemy is violence, insecurity, poverty, stagnation, corruption, and underdevelopment.
“It is these same people responsible for these, that have weaponized poverty and ethnicity to distract us from their evil endeavors and diabolical activities.
“We will never have a free and fair election under a Tinubu presidency.
“They have tried to destroy years of delicately balanced ethnic relations, years of intermarriage and friendships, years of commerce, and years of building Lagos into the economic juggernaut that it is. I call on the silent majority, decent and cultured Lagosian, indigenous Lagosian and Lagosian at large to speak out.
“It is enough of the worst of us defining the rest of us. On Saturday (March 18), we saw their vision for Lagos and agberocracy, and we will fight through all legal channels to birth OUR LAGOS,” the statement partly read
