Lagos ADC Governorship Candidate Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour Mourns Mother

The African Democratic Congress (ADC) governorship candidate in Lagos State, Gbadebo Rhodes-Vivour, has announced the death of his mother, Nkechi Stella Rhodes-Vivour.

The announcement was made on Monday through a statement posted on his official X account.

Signed on behalf of the family by Olawale Rhodes-Vivour, the statement paid tribute to the late Nkechi Stella Rhodes-Vivour, describing her as a devoted wife, mother and grandmother who embodied love throughout her lifetime.

“With sadness in our hearts and gratitude to God for a life well spent, we announce the call to glory of Nkechi Stella Rhodes-Vivour (née Waboso). A loving wife, devoted mother and grandmother. The epitome of love,” the family stated.

The statement further expressed the family’s grief, saying she would be greatly missed while praying for the repose of her soul.

“She will be sorely missed. May her beautiful soul rest in perfect peace.”

The family also disclosed that funeral arrangements would be communicated at a later date.

Rhodes-Vivour, who contested the 2023 Lagos State governorship election on the platform of the Labour Party, later defected to the ADC and emerged as the party’s candidate for the 2027 governorship election after winning its ticket in May 2026.
