deomelo: Sadly, his bigoted ways did not start with this particular issue so he can not discount this issue and ignore his past offensive, horrible and disgusting comments.
This apology though obviously forced by his employer and colleagues doesn't sound heartfelt or genuine since most of the offensive and bigoted remarks are still there on his FB page.
His employer is not too far from the same odious and bigoted pathways because they saw and enabled this disgusting character for years so they must also take their own portion of the blame.
Sadly, Vanguard as a news organization is a damaged brand with zero trusts and sense of objectivity and this bigot helped highlight what we all know about this damaged news organization and I don't see them recovering anytime soon.
A suffersticated morons cannot tell the difference between northern agenda, supported by fellow northerners and a suffersticated morons being led to the gallows.!

datproject: He should have known that Yoruba control the media and that they are good at petitioning; writing from time immemorial. With all your arrogance, now you are brought to your kneel by force. At last, who is now a 'shopisticated slowpoke'? You off course! See the way he is now regrettably begging like 'mumu'. I believe he will never try it again in his life. He has learnt his lesson in a very hard way, please, Yoruba people! Omo oduduwa! Forgive him! We are human being, we bound to make mistakes in life in as much as we are not God, please, I am begging on his behalf forgive him.

Rubbish! keep beating ur dry chest!
All he said, he meant, but apologies anyway if i got u pregnant with feelings.
LaudableXX: You are right...the Eze Nd'Igbos observed protocol as cowards...unable to defend their people against any demeaning remarks, made against them. The Oba's speech just revealed the cowardly nature of the Eze Nd'Igbos.
U DONT SEE THE WAY, WE REPOST AHMADU BELLO VIDEOS?
HE IS OLD ENOUGH TO BE MY GREAT GREAT GRAND FATHER.
LaudableXX: Why should the Oba leave his palace to go to Igbo land? To do what? All the 18 Eze Nd'Igbos that met him in Lagos, are they not enough? What did they do, when he uttered his remarks? Abeg, go siddon.... He did not harm his guests, so stop exaggerating. Ask your Eze Nd'Igbos why they were clapping for him and bowing before him.
I DONT WANT TO MAKE THIS THREAD ABOUT ME AN U BECOS WE HAVE JUST PROVEN U WRONG AND DISCREDITED WHEREEVER U THINK UR HEADING.
LaudableXX: The Delta monarchs disagreed with the treatment meted out to them by a whole Vice-President of the nation, (not an ordinary Oba), so they staged a walk out. The VP and his aides had to beg them to come back. Compare that with an Oba speaking in his palace, against members of an ethnic group resident in his state, and yet the representatives of that ethnic group known as the Eze Nd'Igbos clapped for him, and agreed to his demands, instead of expressing their displeasure at his choice of words. Can you spot the difference, now?
LaudableXX: True, but no one is calling for their heads, because their own people dealt with them in their own way...can you spot the difference? Your Eze Nd'Igbos that applauded Oba Akiolu for his comments are saints, but the Oba is the sinner? Wow! How cute.
U WANT ELDERLY IGBO TITLED MEN, EDUCATED MEN, CIVILISED MEN TO FIGHT LAGOON YORUBA OBA IN HIS PALACE?
ofai: Morons will always be morons whether you dash them sense or not. If they refuse to clap, they have dishonored your oba, they clapped, now they are supporting the oba. Are you high?
No matter how offensive it may sound, still honor the king in his palace....then rubbish him later.
IGBOS ARE CIVILISED PEOPLE!
WE ARE THE ONLY PEOPLE THAT HONOUR FOREIGNERS WITH TITLE.
WE ARE VERY WELCOMING BUT ALL THAT WILL CHANGE AT THE PASSING OF THE PRESENT GENERATION.
ME AND U THE GENERATION NEXT KNOW HOW IT TAKE BE US FOR BODY, WE NO SEND ANYBODY. NNAMDI KANU SPOKE THE MINDS OF THE NEXT GENERATION OF IGBOS.
