Former
Governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, has finally reacted to
the anti-Igbo comments made by Oba of Lagos, Rilwan Akiolu. Tinubu said
the Oba is not a member of APC and so can't speak on behalf of the
party. Speaking to
Punch at a rally in Iganmu today, Tinubu said;
“The oba is not a politician. His job is to accommodate
all political parties, whether PDP, APC or SDP. So, what did he (Ubah)
go and do at the palace? To you Igbos, don’t we pay your children’s school fees like others?
Or is it the palace that pays for it? When we conducted an exam and a
spelling competition, an Igbo boy, Ebuka, from Anambra, came first and
he became the governor for one day.
“Those that won the competition three times in a row were Igbo. Ebuka
was sent to Switzerland computer school and then Obafemi Awolowo
University. We did not say he was an Igbo boy and he would not enjoy. He
became an executive in Oando and he is now in Canada.
“Another boy, Felix, won and went to Switzerland and OAU. We paid his scholarship; we did not deny him because he is Igbo.”
I hope the igbos can now vote for Ambode as governor
