Oba Akiolu's Threat: Igbos in Lagos Apprehensive of Post Election Events

The Igbo community in Lagos have appealed to Lagos State government and the state Commissioner of Police, Mr Kayode Aderanti, to put security measures in place to ensure the protection of their lives and property after the general elections, according to Vanguard.
The appeal came just as they demanded an apology from Oba Rilwan Akiolu of Lagos over his comment that the Igbo would perish in the Lagos lagoon, in seven days, if they did not vote for his choice governorship candidate in yesterday’s elections.

The Chairman, Ohaneze Ndigbo in Amuwo Odofin local government area, Chief Akalika Emmanuel, explained that the call for the protection of life and property became necessary to avoid unforeseen circumstances.
