Lagos Floods: I Have Not Seen Any Foward Thinking Plan by the APC Government - Rhodes-Vivour 

Thank you Gbadebo, you are one in a million

Gbadebo is sound and not hate driven, he's frank and smart.

The guy is smart, with a lot of exposure.

Intelligent, Sincere and honest people are hated in Nigeria

Incoming Governor of Lagos state inshallah 💯❤️

This guy is smart, he knows what he’s saying.

Only Rhodes carriage shows the man is class, because that’s what he oozes and this is the kind of person Lagos state needs

Am a yoruba man,we must stop tribalism. It will not help us out. Our leaders travel to overseas, let us build our country. It will better for us all. We are one, togetherness we will build, Lagos and Nigeria. Tribe will not solve our situation. We must choose right leaders.

Wonderful man speaking that's so refreshing nice to watch i love this interview if more open minded Nigerians will come out and speak like Gbadebo did today things will be more better the question is will those in government listen and act toward those ideas the truth is i love Gbadebo he's so brilliant with good ideas how Lagos state will be more beautiful to live in that's so good nice one Arise news i am watching from outside Nigeria but i must confess i am impress of what i hear from mr Gbadebo they's so many intelligent Nigerians like Gbadebo but because of bad government they just keep low profile but continue watch what government is doing

Why can’t Nigeria have brilliant minds like this in Leadership?

Steve should just run for office under the APC, it's no longer a secret that he's an admirer of this administration.

This is very painful in Nigeria, that Yoruba people will not go for the brilliant people to Lead them rather they prefer Criminals.

Centre of Excellence needs excellent - unbiased, approaches to deal with all problems staring at us..good work Mr Gbadebo.. 🎉

Class, Passion, Empathy and Brains!THESE RESONATES VERY WELL WITH ME.. GOD BLESS "IYA SHINEDU" and HER HUBBY for giving this man a quality and righteous upbringing. MAY THE ALMIGHTY KEEP protecting this refined mind called Gbadbo Rhodes-Vivor from the envy and jealousy of his enemies IN JESUS MIGHTY NAME, AMEN. A man of Truth, Justice and progress... HE MUST BE THE NEXT GOVERNOR OF LAGOS STATE and nothing will stop HIM in JESUS MIGHTY NAME. a lot of tears will be wiped away. Lagos indegenes SHOULD BE VERY PROUD OF THIS MAN. He is giving them a very good name...I hope the Agbadorians are learning from his table? A new teacher is in town..

I very much appreciate this young fella with his mentality of people/citizens first. I am sure they will not let him get there, even governor Sanwo-Olu realized he would have lost if the 2023 election was not manipulated with all the propaganda , Oro and the intimidation. I hope the youth and the good people of Lagos should vote this guy as their next governor. Stop the mediocrity of this current politics with all these narcissistic psychopaths politicians.

Hear quality solution from a forward thinker, experienced individual unlike Sanwolu and his Commissioner who came and was talking rubbish. I hope those who hailed Wahab watched this to see how stupid Wahab is

GRV is a professional on the current issue of flooding in Lagos state. He espoused these ideas during the 2023 governorship election. He has smart ideas which the state should tap into and stop deriding him.LASG should make use of his talent. He's a Lagosian and he is offering great imput for the government to work with.

How did people leave such a brilliant mind to go vote (Ade gator) aka sanwo iku? Nawah o

Gbadebo you're discussing with an APC freak (Steve), he would always defend them at all times.

Sharp as a tact.

One day Tinubu empire will end in Lagos State all the Lagos State properties he converted to personal property will be recovered...

This the lagos that tinubu build..lol

Steve is a great pretender and he will never support any suggestion from anyone except an APC member

A government without people oriented plan.

Brilliant

Brilliant young man intelligently playing the role of opposition in Lagos state. Being a trained architect, he has made a lot of sense on this one. The government of Lagos state should listen to him and take advantage of his knowledge; being an opposition could be a huge asset.

No mediocre can rule lagos, We need a professional architect like Gbadebo .to run lagos

He is right the government officials we have in Nigeria aren’t here to serve and it’s sad

I don't understand; are the presenters speaking for Lagos state govt?

You can't be tired listening to this guy. He is so sound.

Love the interview❤, such intelligent answers

Wisdom

I see some nonentities here insulting this man, because his mother is an Igbo, and he married an Igbo woman. Let me suggest, before you insult anyone, look around your family if you have anyone who surpasses the person you're insulting in your family. Remember that his father is a Yoruba man, and also a retired justice of the supreme court of Nigeria. Don't insult and denigrate someone who is far greater and bigger than you. Are you saying if you do business or anything with someone who is not from tribe, such business should not yield any profit because the person is not from your tribe. Are you saying any woman married into your family who is not from your tribe should not be a blessing to your family, since you abhorred good things from another tribe. Until you're traced and charged for defamation and libel you will not learn to respect people natural affiliations. GRV you're a great mind. Thank you for your topnotch professional advise to the government of Lagos state.

Thank you smart lovely mr zVivour.

Great guy

IS APC A PARTY FOR THE PEOPLE?

Every year it happens and it’s the same thing but it’s Nigeria

This steve guy is a coward journalist always asking mumu questions.

GRV is talking to deaf people. Seyitan, I love you hair. More of it. Some kids in Ngr now think that those wigs our women put on are real hairs.

The truth is that the lagos state government is not doing much to effectively tackle the flooding situation in lagos. Their efforts are at best very pedestrian and moving forward, the goverment should leverage the resources at their disposal and actively work with relevant stakeholders to resolve these issues. There is too much at stake to not do anything and the fact that the water will recede with time is silly.

Although wetland protection is essential, Lagos State needs a flood and comprehensive Stormwater management plan. Wetlands are essential for bio life preservation. Floodplain management would make the city reasonably safe from flooding. They are related but 2 different things.

Thank you GRV

I really dont care we need people like this in Government. Lagos let a gem go here

Lagos State don't know what they are missing in GRV. When he becomes Governor, Lagosians will be amazed by the true potential of Lagos State.

Wow I’ve always seen GRV from a negative angle but with this you earn my respect… Pls can they resurrect WAI

Shame on people still in support of the status quo in Lagos especially. Supporting APC blindly based on whatever narrative or sentiments ! Politicians are enjoying life whilst the people suffer. People must get sense.

A man with great ideas

I feel like crying , princes are walking on foot while criminals are riding on horses 😮

Arise should transfer Steve to This Day Newspaper. He should stay there and be working with them.

GRV BRILLIANT AND INTELLIGENT.

We need good thinkers in government. Thank you GRV APC lacks good thinkers in government. Fashola was a good thinker and Governor of Lagos, i remember meeting him in2009. Currently, Adams Oshiomole is the only thinker i have seen in government, but he is corrupt in his thinking. GRV, keep fighting hard

The fact that people like this are not in Government is the problem with Nigeria. We despise competent Intellectual, we prefer corrupt sycophants.

I love GRV.. But I love this woman ❤ the more 😂.. Very sweet 🍬

To be honest, if Yorubas Reject this man, I'll glad have him as a Governor in Enugu if Possible.

With all the buildings brought down with flemsy excuses .

Lagos state dodged a bullet abi? We are all paying with our teeth now😂😂

This guy is well qualified and focus than the current governor . He's more exposed and strategically gifted and prepared

GRV you are a great guy, i love personality. Continue pressuring this bad APC Govt.One day you will emerge as the Iagos state Governor .Great ideas Goodluck sir🎉

GRV is my guy

GRV will have my vote again if he contest. This man is just too brilliant! He has said this over and over again, before this time. We must not fall for the blackmail again.

Getting the government approval on a building is like war in Lagos even government assignments fees is over 4 million

I don't understand the defensive interruptions of the male Journalist.ARISE PLEASE DO BETTER.

PDP is not an opposition party

Thank you Gbadebo

I'm surprised that you guys did not mention MIT in the introduction this time around. GRV is apparently great with monologues, or when he's not being challenged by averagely smart minds. Bring in the Commissioner and he will listen attentively. Nothing he is saying that even I do not already know. Flooding is not limited to Lagos, and demolishing illegally built properties is only one aspect to mitigating it. You guys also had the nerve to mention Dubai after what recently happened there?

Poor drainage system is the reason for the flood. We have states in Nigeria that are located around seas, like Cross River and co, we didn't hear of flood.

Don't forget it easier said than done in Nigeria.... I can't trust any word of Nigeria politician

The mighty Oyo empire the mighty Arewa people the wonderful Biafran culture shall no longer be disrespected by white man created Nigeria.. I don’t want to put my ancestry second to a state that doesn’t except me because of my ethnicity or religion. That’s blasphemy

They blaming the citizens for throwing trash in the gutter, do they have a trash place where they can take trash to dump. In US every county has place where you go and dump trash.

It's disheartening to see failed politicians become critics. Mr. Badebo should strive to be more objective and genuine in his criticism of the current Lagos state government. His apparent political motivations will only harm his credibility if he continues on this path. The recent flood in Lagos is a complex issue with multiple factors at play. Rather than pointing fingers, we should recognize that the disaster resulted from a combination of factors, including: - Unusually heavy rainfall that overwhelmed the city's drainage system - Inadequate drainage infrastructure that failed to keep pace with rapid urbanization - Blocked drainages due to poor maintenance and waste disposal - Climate change, which contributes to rising sea levels and changing weather patterns - Poor urban planning and development that neglects natural waterways and drainage paths - Inadequate funding, slow response, and ineffective flood management strategies from government agencies and institutions To address the flood, we need a collaborative effort to improve infrastructure, urban planning, and disaster preparedness and response. Let's work together to find solutions rather than playing politics with the issue.

Nigerian need to shut down all makes nd every where to come out to the street so that we can save our nation

You will be governor of Legos some day , but with this INEC it will be hard ooo ,

Have never seen open gutter in American.

Suddenly, you guys remember Vi our, o d who is supposed to be your go ernor, he had the qualification .Lagos state is one of the fastest sinking city in the world,what can i say,Tinubu ,Sanwo Olu,they claim they build Lagos, what else can i say.

Prophecy:we will complain of floods again next year.NIGERIA ATTITUDE.

How there yoy call people miscreants for delivering services to the masses by carrying them on their back for #100.

Chinedu Rhode-Vivour

The guy in suit is too politically correct--stupid,so obvious. A journalist is like lady justice when doing his or her job, honest and no compromise,no lip serv ice.

Tinibu built Lagos o!

I hope he’s Yoruba enough in the next election.

What do you mean? Are house and market demolitions not forward thinking enough?

Ọmọ igbo

Can someone translate this to Hausa, Yoruba, Igbo for people to understand better

Omoale oni ro who fail to fulfill is 5m promised

Unintelligible and exposure deprived host, asking senseless questions.

Igbos built dams to protect the city but Locust government came and demolished the buildings. Now Igbos are not building anymore and Lagos will be soaked in tea.

Mr Shittu. Do your damn job.

That is the work of opposition.

You complain, no suggestions

This Gbadebo has done his research for solutions to the crisis in Lagos and he his eloquently answering the questions with facts. I Hope Sanwolu is listening. Lagos missed a great opportunity.

Doesn’t know anything most of you applauding fool thought. I sorry . If only you guys know what they have done to Lagos by the Military.

Based on the comments under the video, it seems that people from the South East could benefit from the advice provided, which could potentially enable Mr Gbadebo to become the governor of the South East.

Tinubu's Lagos 😂😂😂😂

Can Gbadebo do anything better , easier talked than done

Gbadebo is a cry baby. He’s good at pointing at the problems.

This Ibo boy is here again, we no need you in Lagos govt, go and help your mother's state to control their eternal erosion.

Na all of una be d same. U sef get godfathers. All na scam. Government Favours una pass the whole huge Lagos population.

All canals in Lagos can be cleared in 2 days? Is this guy okay?

This guy loves criticizing, but never ever actually offers a plan and say how exactly he'd solved the issues. Lol just another chance to show his face. Lol he really still think he can win an election in Lagos. Omo go to the east.

The female presenter is daft for saying miscreants made bridges to carry people across the water. I saw an opportunity to provide a service and you expect it to be free?
