Naija News reports that a few days ago, the thespian declared she is indecisive about the candidate to vote for in the state election.
Iyabo Ojo via her Instagram page shared her opinion on the three governorship candidates.
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.
Amidst the criticisms that greeted her support for the LP presidential candidate, Peter Obi, the actress shocked some of her followers by throwing her support for Gbadebo Rhodes.
She shared a photo of the LP candidate stating he is a true Lagosian and son of the soil.
In her hashtags, Iyabo made it clear that she has a right to her choice and that she is fully for the Obidient movement.
She wrote: “Son of the soil….. omo eko gangan ….. remain blessed & highly favored @grvlagos Please vote & support your own choice in peace.
“Let the best man win, A better Lagos is what we pray for, no fight, no hate #atruelagosian #Mychoicemyright #obidientmovement”
This sparked angry reactions from netizens who questioned what Sanwo-Olu and the All Progressives Congress (APC) did to her.
