Iwuanyanwu Calls Yorubas “Political Rascals” (Video)
The Chairman, Council of Elders, Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Chief Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, has condemned individuals described as political rascals for the ethnically charged rhetoric against the Igbo in Lagos State.
During last Saturday’s governorship election, there were targeted attacks on voters of southeastern extraction.
Chief Iwuanyanwu made his views known on Saturday at a ceremony in Anambra State to commemorate Governor Chukwuma Soludo’s one year in office.
The Igbo elder stated that he convened a meeting of the Ohanaeze Council of Elders worldwide, who X-rayed the events in Lagos during the meeting held on Wednesday.
The Ohanaeze leader asserted that southeastern natives were fellow Nigerians who had “so much” investments in the country. Reacting to the rhetoric ordering Igbo sojourners to leave other regions, he said, “We are not going anywhere.”
