Hian!!!
Is this for real?? There’s nothing we’ll not hear in this country! The
Oba of Lagos,Oba Rilwan Akiolu, has read the riot act to Igbo leaders
and monarchs in Lagos State, warning that he will make life unbearable
for them if they sabotage efforts being made to ensure that the
governorship candidate of (APC) Mr. Akinwunmi Ambode, emerges as the
next governor of the state.
According to
Sun,the
monarch, summoned all the Eze-Ndigbo in the state to his palace and
said that the support of their kinsmen for the opposition party in the
state could frustrate current efforts being made in all quarters to
ensure that Lagos was no longer in opposition with the Federal Government. He said:
“On Saturday, if anyone of you goes against Ambode, who I picked, that is your end.
If it does not happen within seven days, just know that I am a bastard and it is not my father who gave birth to me.
“By the grace of God, I am the owner of Lagos for the time being. This
is an undivided chair. The palace belongs to the dead and those coming
in the future. On Saturday, if anyone of you, I swear in the name of
God, goes against my wish that Ambode will be the next governor of Lagos
State, the person is going to die inside this water.
“For the Igbo
and others in Lagos, they should go where the Oba of Lagos heads to.
When they were coming to the state, they did not come with all their
houses. But now, they have properties in the state. So they must do my
bidding. And that is the bidding of the ancestors of Lagos and God.“I
am not ready to beg you. Nobody knew how I picked Ambode. Jimi is my
blood relation and I told him
that he could never be governor in Lagos for now. The future belongs to
God. I am not begging anybody, but what you people cannot do in
Onitsha, Aba or anywhere you cannot do it here.”
