He isnt forcing any1 to vote 4 ambode but he wish if d igbos can show appreciation to fashola by voting ambode...lo ba tan
Read below.....
“My attention has been drawn to a publication in a national newspaper where HRM Oba Riliwanu Akinolu was alleged to have threatened Igbos in Lagos to make them vote for Ambode.

Last Sunday, all honorary Eze Ndigbos in Lagos paid a courtesy call to HRM Oba Akinolu. At the meeting the visitors praised the Oba for his fatherly support for and cooperation with Igbos in. Lagos. They assured him of their continued good neighborliness with other tribes in Lagos and support everything that’ll further strengthen that harmony.

Oba Akiolu on his part acknowledged the enviable performance of Governor Fashola and his contribution to the growth of investments in Lagos. He gave the assurance that he is not disturbed or angry with South-East and South- South votes for President Jonathan as perceived by the Eze Ndigbos. The Obas thereafter called on the Igbos chiefs to show appreciation to Lagos State by supporting his candidate Mr. Ambode for continuity of excellence as they have earlier promised.

He assured them of his continued support‎ and assistance where needed and the meeting ended with the traditional breaking of kolas, alligator pepper, and bitter kola and pouring of liberation on the ground. It was within this context that that the tradition of Lagos with regard to the lagoon came up. It was noted that whoever works against the throne and the interest and peaceful co-existence of Lagos would end up in the lagoon as per tradition.

Oba Akiolu stated further that the Igbo people have not betrayed the throne. Lagos has also not betrayed the Igbo people. Lagos has done so much to make the Igbos comfortable and to prosper. For this, we expect reciprocal respect and understanding. The Oba of Lagos prays that the Lagoon and the throne will continue to bless and protect all those who reside and visit Lagos.

Oba Akiolu is the father of all irrespective of tribe, religion or political persuasion. In Lagos, we have an old traditional proverb that relates to the Lagoon. The Lagoon is unique to Lagos. The proverb stresses the need for unity and understanding when you do business in an environment and in this case when you live and do business in Lagos.

Oba Akiolu prays for peace for the land of Lagos and prosperity for all its inhabitants”.

Which clarity is he talking about? Why did you omit that he said what they could not do in onitsha should not be done here in Lagos, The message was clear enough, no need for any clarity

Igbo in Lagos are vying over ownership of Lagos with Yoruba, they even got to extent of asking for Igbo deputy as their rightful slot.
I've heard an Igbo friend that say Yorubas are fool, that we are sold out in election that produced sai baba.
Igbo are visitor in Lagos and Yoruba been accommodative above other tribes, allowed Igbo freedom that got them intusticated.
Akinolu have my support for whatever some bunch of fools have in plan. He should not apologies to anybody, and whoever that's not comfortable with Oba's stand should vacate Lagos.
Can a Yoruba person become councilor in your region? Have included Yoruba in your state government as we have in Lagos?
Part of Igbo greediness is their mad culture that never allow female children to inherit her father property.
They will never see anything good about other tribe. They always have that ego of dominant. Lagos has had enough of your mess, on Akiolu statement we stand.

What's I noticed so far is does Igbos making so much noise on this issue here on Nairaland don't stay in Lagos and even some of them have not being to Lagos before
The real Lagos based Igbos won't take it that personal to this level, because they won't allow politics to divide us apart. We the yorubas and igbos have been living like one family here in Lagos.

1. How does he clarify statement when the video is already available?


2. Does he mean Igbos don't have right of association?

3. Is Agbaje not a Yoruba son again?


4. Appreciate Fashola who deported them in their country at night?


Oba Akinolu has erred unless the video is fake.
