Yorubas are visionless. Awolowo never believed in anything that's why he died like nothing. He is coward. He has no choice of his. Zik bring him to nigeria, Gowon kept him in Nigeria even to this days.

Yorubas fight for your own country. ..Nigeria is not a country. ..

It is Yoruba cowardice and timidity that make them want Igbos to remain in Nigeria. Igbos give those cowards a kind of protection and cover from their masters up north. That is why if igbos secede now, yorubas will secede from their Hausa masters.

Yorubas fight for your country. Nigeria is a mere geographical expression. .didn't your hero said that? You lot are lazy cowards with no vision. Your only vision is ND oil

Your hero committed suicide. Your hero is coward who never fight for your freedom. Your hero had no choice of his, remember Zik made him accept nigeria and Gowon made him stay in Nigeria. Your hero believed nothing and die like nothing. ..WHAT A BIG SHAME

Igbos and vain glory: Let me ask you, where were your 'visionary leaders' when Awolowo brought the First Television station in Africa, University college, free education and free health which put the southwest above other region in Nigeria in terms of socioeconomic development? Remember that started before the discovery of oil in commercial quantity? Have you ever wondered why your warlord, Ojukwu, referer to Awolowo as 'the best president Nigeria never had'? You dont need unreasonable and meaningless hate my man, you need to be educated. God Bless

Someone should remind me the outcome of HEDA's september 2014 petition to ICC against Ali Modu Sheriff and Ihejirika on Insecurity in the North East and APC's petition against Patience Jonathan for her inciteful statements in the runup to the presidential elections.

The thing with we Nigerians is we take ourselves too seriously. The petitions end up amounting to nothing and usually end up in a slush pile

Remb crime committed 50yrs ago,can and will be judge today. Hope you av heard of such b4?. The Oba's speech is already documented in the ICC waiting for anytime voilence will erupt as a result of this speech he made

Oba might be Joking but his utterance is a major precipice to violence. Mr Onoh on the other hands is just a delusional Igbo ethnic dog, looking up to opportunities for vengeance. Before you curse me I am an Igbo man
But For people like you who could objectively see through all these lies, propaganda and hate, i should believe nigeria is doomed. thank you for rising above all these petty ethnic affiliation even as an igbo man. aside corruption, sharp and unprecedented ethnic and religious division that characterised jonathan administration pitted me against him. whether he is igbo or yoruba or hausa is not a factor. pls lets help others break out of this nta, ait, biafra radio et al hypnotism.

The Oba cannot face a trial in the ICC like his Zulu king counterpart. Why because, in the case of the Oba, no igbo son or daughter was thrown into the lagoon but in the case of Zwethelini king of Kwazulu many foreigners were killed and their properties destroyed. So the highest they can do is for him to write a statement and he goes back to his throne.

It would have to be proven beyond doubt that indeed the Oba's speech was responsible for a violence that erupted 50 years later.

You'd have to agree with me that is next to impossible. Cases ICC takes seriously are usually war crimes, such as a leader using massive force against his own citizens such as we saw with Saddam Hussein et al.

These petitions and several others I listed earlier are just mere academic exercises which amount to nothing

What kind of person are you? This is an issue that has been discussed and laid to rest. Everybody is now at peace. Now the Onoh dude is stirring the honet's nest. Does he thinks by taking the Oba to ICC the Igbos will have peace? That would only enrage the yorubas. Its like trying to challenge a man in his own house. What the Oba said was wrong, yes but it's over.
The Oba is unwise, So he didn't know the issue will be over flogged?... Mtcheeww, Even if nothing happens to him, I know he must have learnt his lesson.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) has confirmed that it has received a petition against the Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu, as a result of the inciting statement he made against the Igbo people living in Lagos State before the April 11 governorship election.

The international court on Tuesday acknowledged receipt of the petition filed by Dr. Josef Umunnakwe Onoh, son of the former Governor of Enugu State, late Chief C.C Onoh.

The Oba had threatened to throw the Igbo people into the lagoon if they failed to vote for the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Akinwumi Ambode.

Onoh threatened to present Oba Akiolu’s inciteful speech before the ICC which he subsequently made real his vow through a petition dated April 21.

Acknowledging receipt of the petition, the ICC Head of Information and Evidence Unit, office of the prosecutor, M.P. Dillon said: “This communication has been duly entered in the communications register of the office.

“We will give consideration to this communication, as appropriate, in accordance with the provisions of the Rome statute of the International Criminal Court.”

Onoh petitioned the ICC, saying he believed that Oba Akiolu’s threat amounted to a call for violence to be perpetrated against the Igbo people in Lagos in the event that the APC governorship candidate lost the election, which he noted violates Article 20 of the international convention and elimination of all forms of racial discrimination.

“Had the threat been made by any lesser person, we would have dismissed same as ideal threat, but coming from the Oba of Lagos himself, it was a call to arms and an incitement to violence against the Igbo people,” Onoh petitioned.

It will be recalled that it was a similar incitement speech by the Zulu king that caused the ongoing xenophobia rampage in South Africa.
