The Labour Party governorship candidate in Lagos state for the 2023 election, Gbadebo Rhodes Vivour has condemned the remarks by Speaker of the State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa that the house will make laws to protect the property right of indigenes.
Obasa had in his acceptance speech after his re-election as the Speaker of the Lagos House of Assembly said lawmakers will go to any length in protecting the state indigenes even if it means reversing existing law.
But Rhodes Vivour warned that any enacted law that seeks to reverse property rights in favour of the indigenous people of Lagos state at the expense of other residents is divisive and not in the economic interest of Lagos.
The Labour Governorship Candidate, advocated for state laws that will rather protect heritage, historical sites, and traditional institutions from political vandalism.
