Good, that is where this nkita belongs...the drainage. A willing useless tool in the hands of a bigoted tribal warlord.

Hillsong34:
IPOB should stay clear from touching leaders from other region.No body should come form and Nzeogwu for us again.
They should rather concentrate on Igbo leaders until they get sense.

Andhominem:
I believe Joe's conduct at the screening led to this. He said something like more non Yorubas should get appointments in Lagos.

sonofElElyon:
Sanwoolu doesn't want to risk putting igbokwe in the limelight where he would end up being an embarrassment to his government. Just being practical..

Jimiyung:
Drainage & water resources and all you ppl are talking about is drainage. He has two ministries under him that are well funded. Too many projects in water resources alone and add to the projects in drainage which is a major issue in Lagos (flood control), thats huge. Believe me, he is OK..

Eyes yaff open now! They dare not try d 1966 ehnic cleansing again.
Nigerians (esp northerners) are still "hotting" fom dt 1966 ethnic cleansing.
I'm afraid if a repeat of dt '66 madness occurs, this time there may not be any 'remnant'.

As per Joe igbokwe, the moment he made the "if a region is occupied dominated by 70-75% , they should at least be given d3puty councillor" comment, I knew his village pipo have got him!
He really mis-yarned.

almarthins:
I want to believe you are nt a lagosian. Appointment na appointment. If he doesnt like it, he can honourably resign or reject. The same God that created lion, also created cricket. Job na job.

Lagos has terrible drainage problem.

escapefromusa:
When did he say this?

Lagos State Commissioner nominee, Mr Joe Igbokwe, on Friday, declared that he was not an Igbo and should not be called one, Igbere TV reports.

Igbere TV reports that Igbokwe made the declaration when he appeared before the Lagos State House of Assembly for screening and confirmation.

He rather described himself as a Nigerian, insisting that he does not belong to nor patronize any ethnic group.

Igbokwe, who is also the Spokesman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos, lampooned those he described as ethnic bigots.

He blamed the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Vice Presidential candidate, Peter Obi, for the “attitude of Easterners” in Lagos during the last general election.

“Lagos should take the lead and be more open to other ethnic groups by giving them political appointments,” he said.

“I’m proudly Nigerian; I don’t know about east, west, north or south. I have been in Lagos since 1985. My children were born here. It’s high time we started building this country.

“I get angry when people mention ethnicity. A young Nigerian lady was just made a minister in Britain. If I become the president of this country, nobody is going to fill form and put his state of origin. That’s the first thing I will do. It is when you take people for who they are that is when they will release their energy for the good of the country. One day, Nigerians will say, we are all Nigerians.

“The reason for the attitude of easterners in Lagos at the last election was because Peter Obi was on the ballot. If Atiku had won, he would be the vice president.

If 70 to 75 per cent of a particular people dominate a region, they should be encouraged. If they don’t get council chairman, at least make them deputy. What Igbo people have in Lagos, they don’t have a quarter of it in their land. If you see anybody that is doing well in the South East, he must have a thriving business in Lagos”, Igbokwe added.

Igbos are NOT entitled to any political appointment in Lagos. You all should get that clear.
