If this had happened in Lagos or any other state, I bet you. Peter obi would have since release a statement condemning it.

But here we go

No statement

Somebody does not know the difference between internal and external affairs.

Why would Peter Obi release statement for South African matter? Una just wan including Obi for everything.

Tgats not igbophobia. It's called nonsense. Know your limit anywhere you go in life.

Heffalump:
Chai, Igbophobia is real.

AustineE1:
So Nigerians host other Nigerians in Nigeria!
You are a big joke,until Nigerians accept that we all are tired of this contraption and geographical location called Nigeria and go our separate ways,then we are not serious.

Your father told you that Lagos is Igbo land?

franchasng:
Just to distract Nigerians from the biggest event in Nigeria this month; defection of Kwankwaso to ADC.

Make una try harder, tribal bigots!


Like President like his supporters.



Who doesn't know that South Africans are xenophobic Mzamzi losers?

your people are causing madness in another man's land n u are talking about defection

How can u claim someone is xenophobic when u are provoking them?

Cj4charles:
The Igbo's keeps souring high that as far as South Africa they are protesting against them installing king in their region.... Igbo is really a big name

This isn't the right way to look at the issue.
Respect your hosts wherever you go. Chikena.

masterfactor:
Why are our brothers from the East like pouring fuel into fire. You can do those things in Nigeria and go scot free but not in another man's land. This is the problem they are having with there host in Lagos.


Let there be peace

Igbos doesn't have any host in Lagos, Lagos belong to all Nigerians.

May God grant Igbo their Biafra.

Said in scared voice, anyway Amen 🙏

Eastern Cape protest turns violent with stabbing, cars torched over 'Nigerian King' coronation

Chaos erupted in KuGompo City, in the Eastern Cape, on Monday as cars were set ablaze and property vandalised after a man was allegedly stabbed during a protest against the reported coronation of a Nigerian national as king.

The situation is so serious that fire services have been dispatched to the scene, while police are using teargas to disperse the crowd.

The protest, which started peacefully, comes after videos and images of Chief Solomon Ogbonna Eziko being crowned ‘Igwe Ndigbo’ in the city, formerly East London, went viral.

Several groups, including ActionSA, the Patriotic Alliance, civic movement March and March, and several traditional leaders, have joined the demonstration, condemning the ceremony as unlawful.

Police spokeswoman Brigadier Nobuntu Gantana confirmed that police had responded to the scene.

"The protest began as a planned peaceful demonstration by various traditional leaders over the alleged coronation of an Igbo king," she said.

"Violence broke out when some participants moved away from the city hall, where a petition was being handed over.

"Twelve vehicles have been damaged, and several buildings have been torched.

"Emergency services, including the fire department, remain on the scene, along with the Public Order Policing Unit.

"This is an active scene, and updates information will be shared in due course."

A man was allegedly stabbed in the back by a foreign national and taken to the hospital.

Gantana said the man was not part of the march.

"The stabbed person is not linked to the march," she said.

March and March leader Jacinta Ngobese-Zuma, however, said on Facebook that it was one of her members who had been stabbed.

She said the member was also knocked down by a car.

ActionSA Eastern Cape leader Athol Trollip previously told IOL there was no constitutional provision for any foreigner, legal or illegal, to coronate themselves in the Eastern Cape.

"We do not support that," he said.

"We support the existing local kings in the Eastern Cape, of which we have five, and no Nigerian kings.”

PA spokesperson Steve Motale said: "We condemn that fake coronation.

"We are happy that even the Nigeria High Commissioner in SA has also condemned it."

The Royal House of AbaThembu, in a statement to IOL, previously denied reports on social media that King Buyelekhaya Dalindyebo welcomed and granted royalty to the Nigerian national.

He said he was not involved.

AbaThembu royal ambassador and senior royal advisor Adv Matthew Mpahlwa said the claims come from “sick and depraved minds".

"The Royal House of AbaThembu wishes to distance itself from the trending social media posts and pictures purporting to portray King Dalindyebo as welcoming and officially granting royalty to a particular Nigerian national," Mpahlwa said at the time.

kingthreat:
Yes South Africans are very xenophobic people. But this action of Igbo king in their land poured 1 gallon of petrol on their xenophobia.
Igbos in diaspora should calm down. You should read your environment before installing Eze Ndigbo anywhere.
Now another xenophobic madness that will take lives, injure many and destroy lots of properties.

What is igbo king in SA? Eze Ndi Igbo is just the leader of the igbos living in SA just like how they have in london germany china US UAE Qatar just name it. I dont know how that has become a problem for African countries. Africans need to be more serious with their lives. Ok they are protesting against imaginary king then next thing is to start is to start breaking shops and stealing grocies? How low . Hate has made many africans to become stupid

If Igbos need a king outside Nigeria, i think they should not make it public.
