Okorocha while speaking to journalists
in Imo state capital, Owerri, following the visit by president-elect,
Muhammadu Buhari, defended the Oba of Lagos and pointed out that the Oba of Lagos was not totally wrong in insisting that Igbos must vote Ambode.
Okorocha went as far as depicting the Igbos as ungrateful during the castigations on the Igbo people.
He said: “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.”
Governor Okorocha further in a rather
more subtle way reiterated the threats by the Oba of Lagos, Retired
Policeman AIG Rilwan Akiolu, saying that the APC could make life
unbearable for all Igbo traders and resident in Lagos should the Igbos
transgress.
Okorocha said: “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.
