So that's why this issue is accured. I have done the same bro.i have transferred whole data via smart switch n also google drive backup of whatsapp so both folder appears in gallery
Now just do one thing you have to find which one is your google drive folder in gallery. For this just download one image from any whatsapp chat in see in your gallery on which folder it is appearing
Keep that whatspps folder n delet the othar one

Take google drive backup again in whatspps n after that delet all whatspps folders from gallary as well as from file manager n search whatsapp there n delete all whatsapp files there also
Now uninstall whtaspp n reinstall it n at the time of installing it'll ask to restore from Google drive. Restore it
N you r done
Note Recommend you to take backup of all whatsapp media to usb before uninstalling whatsapp
