Iyabo Ojo and gubernatorial candidate

Ahead of the Lagos State gubernatorial election, Nollywood actress, Iyabo Ojo has declared she is indecisive about the candidate to vote for in the gubernatorial election.

This is coming a few days after the thespian publicly declared support for Labour Party (LP) presidential candidate, Peter Obi during the just concluded elections.

Naija News reports that Iyabo Ojo via her Instagram page shared her opinion on the three governorship candidates in Lagos State.

Speaking about Babajide Sanwo-Olu, the actress commended his achievement but frowned at the outcome of the 2020 EndSars protest which claimed the lives of protesters, stressing that the governor could have done better.

On the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Iyabo said if she was to be sentimental, she would pitch her tent behind her colleague and friend, Funke Akindele, however, she must look beyond emotions.

Also speaking on Labour Party’s candidate, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, the filmmaker said she has observed his dreams of taking over leadership in Lagos which seem to be promising, but she cannot ignore the conflicting reports that have sprung up about his experience and pedigree.

She wrote: “This upcoming Lagos State gubernatorial elections…. hmmm. e go hard me small. My Take

“1. APC: Though this party has never been my prerogative, but give it to Mr Sanwoolu, I have no issues with his achievements and his government. What I find hazy and can’t shake off is how the unfortunate endsars saga played out. I maintain he should have done better.

“2. PDP: If I were to be sentimental, I would take back my words & certainly pitch with my dear friend Funke, but i must see beyond emotions. so I am unable to make a fair judgment.

“3. LP: I have watched closely this young man’s dream to take on the mantle of leadership of our dearly beloved state. Whilst he has a promising resume, one can not overlook the number of conflicting reports on his pedigree and experience”
