Politics / APC, Tinubu Apologize To Igbo by holax: 6:59pm On Apr 10, 2015



AS controversy rages over the hate-speech of Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu, the All Progressives Congress (APC) and its national leader, Senator Bola Tinubu, on Tuesday, apologised to Igbo.

Tinubu, seen as an ally of the traditional ruler, said he was not a member of APC and could not speak for the party and his governorship candidate in Lagos, Akinwunmi Ambode.

The former Lagos State governor spoke at a rally in Iganmu, Lagos, while reacting to the Akiolu’s debate.

At the same event, the president-elect, Major-General Muhammadu Buhari, promised to give Lagos State priority when he takes office.

Tinubu said he was the first Yoruba governor to appoint an Igbo commissioner.

He accused the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), of trying to profit from the crisis generated by Akiolu’s comment, having failed to win penultimate weekend’s presidential elections.

He said the coordinator of the Transformation Ambassadors of Nigeria, Ifeanyi Ubah and the PDP leader, Bode George, were only making baseless accusations against the APC.

According to him, “the oba is not a politician. His job is to accommodate all political parties, whether PDP, APC or SDP. So, what did he (Ubah) go and do at the palace?

“To you Igbos, don’t we pay your children’s school fees like others? Or is it the palace that pays for it? When we conducted an examination and a spelling competition, an Igbo boy, Ebuka, from Anambra, came first and he became the governor for one day.

“Those who won the competition three times in a row were Igbo. Ebuka was sent to Switzerland computer school and then Obafemi Awolowo University. We did not say he was an Igbo boy and he would not enjoy. He became an executive in Oando and he is now in Canada.

“Another boy, Felix, won and went to Switzerland and OAU. We paid his scholarship; we did not deny him because he is Igbo.”

In a statement, the Lagos State APC publicity secretary, Joe Igbokwe, said the traditional ruler spoke out of anger.

He begged his own not to take out their anger on Akinwumi Ambode, who knew nothing about the incident.

The statement read: “Oba Rilwan Akiolu of Lagos is not a card-carrying member of APC. He is not a leader in the APC. He does not speak for the APC. He did not speak for Governor Babatunde Fashola of Lagos state.

“He did not speak for our national leader, Senator Bola Ahmed Tinubu. He did not speak for the incoming governor, Mr Akinwunmi Ambode. His Royal Highness is at liberty to speak for himself and he spoke for himself only.

“Lagos APC appeals to Ndigbo not to take the statement as the position of the party in Lagos. We passionately appeal to Ndigbo not to carry the statement credited to Oba Akiolu too far, so as not to put a knife on things that have held us together for more than 50 years now.

“If out of annoyance, you throw your cap away, a mad man will take it and use it forever.”

Meanwhile, the president-elect, Major-General Muhammadu Buhari, at the APC rally, in Orile area of the state, urged Lagos residents to vote en masse for the party’s governorship candidate in Lagos State, Mr Ambode, on Saturday.

He begged Lagosians to cast their votes for APC candidates on Saturday, for the state to benefit immensely from the government at the centre when he takes over.

Buhari said Lagos was too important for APC to lose after what the ruling party, Nigeria and the people had invested in the state that made it a distinguished state in the country.

According to him, “I was here to appreciate your love for me and APC. I urge you to vote for APC from bottom to up this Saturday. People should not deny Lagos the opportunities at the centre, particularly now that we are at the centre.”

While addressing the crowd, the president-elect recalled that while he was in Lagos during his campaign tour, he rode in an open bus with Governor Babatunde Fashola, who informed him that the state government had spent so much money on maintenance of federal roads in the state and that the PDP-led Federal Gov
