ENUGU-PRESIDENT General of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief Nnia Nwodo has raised the alarm over situations in Lagos state and the threat to lives of Ndigbo residing in Lagos.

He also expressed worry over alleged hostage taking of electoral officers in Imo state by Governor Rochas Okorocha, noting the the Residents Electoral Commissioner in Imo state said his life was on danger.

Nwodo however acknowledged the concern of apex Yoruba organisation, Afenifere, for condemning the disenfranchisement of Igbo voters in parts of Lagos state.

Nwodo in a statement in Enugu raised some concerns. He said: “Forty-eight hours after our elections, we still have no results. There is hardly any voter in Nigeria, who does not know the results of elections in his polling booth. The INEC server is down, yanked off by INEC. Conflicting results dominate the social media.

“The two major national parties claim contradictory victories. Returning officers in Rivers and Imo claim to be under siege, being executed by a minister and a governor respectively. Igbos in Lagos are being threatened for exercising their civic rights to vote. This morning, they were stopped from opening their market stalls in Oshodi.

“The Acting Inspector General of Police refused to pick my three calls to him. The Oba of Lagos remains quiet. The Governor of Lagos State makes no broadcast. The safety of more than four million Igbos living in Lagos seems to be of no concern to him. The Jagaban threatens Igbos to relocate, if they do not vote for his party.

“Thanks to Afenifere for its salutary and comforting voice. The Commander- in- Chief, maintains an ominous silence. The International Community wonders what a country this is. Professor Yakubu Mahmood be warned. Remember 1966. Remember 1983. Our democracy was upturned on those two occasions for the action or inaction of our electoral commission.

“Governor Umahi, you cannot be Chairman of South-East Governors and remain unconcerned about the plight of Igbos in Lagos and unperturbed by the manipulation of our votes in the South-East. History is recording our action and inaction.

“I appeal to Igbos to remain calm and law-abiding while remaining resolute on our resolve to seize the moment of this election to change The character of our governance. May the Almighty God save our country from sliding into another crisis.”

Buhari must win

Inconsequential slave have expressed worry over the attacks and unprovoked disenfranchisement against his supposed subjects in Lagos. the hungry Fulani slave cowardly could not even mention situation by it's name, he rather choose to use adjective. the truth is: Without the IPOB, both Nnia Nwodo, Ohaneze NdiAra, all the Igbo politicians in the zoo and the entire Igbo race, the Igbo would have no voice in the zoo.

Nonsense we will deal with you guys after election.

Them never announce election result finish, una don start to dey wail

Ohaneze should mind their Igbo land and stop including Lagos as their territory.

Why are we still in this country?

Lagos the home of thugs, agbroism and political godfatherism ....Abuja a den of thieves and rogues

Lagos is.rigged

i don't understand this ohaneze...are ibos more than any other tribes in Lagos.?

Nothing will happen to my igbo friends in Lagos. Na play them dey play

Haha

The Oba of Lagos remains quiet. The Governor of Lagos State makes no broadcast. The safety of more than four million Igbos living in Lagos seems to be of no concern to him. The Jagaban threatens Igbos to relocate, if they do not vote for his party.

Expecting help from the very Lagosians you have made enemies, is a heightened state of delusion.

Do I need to remind Ohaneze that they declared Ambode an enemy of Ndigbo, very early into his tenure as governor?

Do I need to remind Ohaneze that Igbos hate Tinubu with passion, without regard to the priviledges he afforded the Igbos in Lagos when he was state governor, just because he helped to sack the ineffectual buffoon from the Presidency?

Do I need to remind Ohaneze of how they politicized a private meeting between the Oba of Lagos and his invited Igbo leaders who were even laughing and clapping at his playful threats before the 2015 governorship elections?

Now you want these same 3 characters who are the object of deliberate Ohaneze inspired hatred, to speak on matters that concern Igbos in Lagos?

Ohaneze must be drunk.

we need no soothsayer to tell us Lagos election was rigged by the ruling PARTY APC

ola6:

I can see you need some meds oga pack well even you can't beat an Igbo guy

danot1030:
Ohaneze should mind their Igbo land and stop including Lagos as their territory.
