THE Ohanaeze Ndigbo has urged the Aare Ona Kakanfo of Yorubaland, Iba Gani Adams, to restrain miscreants it claims are members of the All Progressives Congress – APC, from causing a war between Yoruba and Igbo in Lagos State.
Ohanaeze Ndigbo said that the people making life miserable for the Igbos in Lagos are thugs allegedly led by Musiliu Akinsanya, popularly known as MC Oluomo.
Secretary-General of the body, Okechukwu Isiguzoro, condemned the attacks on Igbos in Lagos State, saying the actions of the people involved are suggesting that there is more to the attacks than politics.
“Ohanaeze Ndigbo, therefore, calls on Iba Gani Adams, the Aare Ona Kakanfo of the Yoruba nation to kindly use his revered office in bringing the situation to a halt.
“Already, it is becoming a Herculean task to hold Ndigbo back from retaliation in the face of the sustained “genocide and crimes against humanity” being perpetrated against Ndigbo in Lagos by some “APC thugs” under the command of MC Oluomo with the State Government and security agencies watching the “horror movie”.
“We are, however, consoled by the patriotic position of Afenifere under the valiant leadership of Pa Ayo Adebanjo and urge Ndigbo to remain law-abiding but “vigilant and on guard.”
