Igbos are ungrateful to Lagos –Governor Okorocha defends Oba

The Imo state Governor, Owelle Rochas Okorocha has thrown his support for the Oba of Lagos, who told the Igbos residing in Lagos that it is wise for them to vote the candidate of the APC, Akin Ambode rather than repeat what they did during the presidential election.

Gov. Okorocha, speaking to the press in Imo state capital after Buhari’s visit, defended the Oba of Lagos and pointed out that the Oba of Lagos was not totally wrong in insisting that Igbos should vote APC.

In his words: “Igbos should not portray themselves as ungrateful people,
the only way they can show appreciation is by massively voting for APC the party that has protected their lives and properties over these years.

“The Lagos state government led by APC has the capacity to make life unbearable for all Igbo traders and resident in Lagos if they so wish. So you see, the Oba was figurative in his speech not necessarily that Igbos will be drowned in Lagoons,” the governor added.
