AN APPEAL TO IGBO IN LAGOS TO STAY AWAY FROM ANY FORM OF PROTESTS ANYWHERE IN LAGOS ON FEBRUARY 13 2021.
As the leader of NDIGBO in APC Lagos I am using the good offices to make a passionate appeal to all Igbo in Lagos to stay away from any form of protest being organized by one man called P Square (Peter or Paul Okoye from Ifitedunu Anambra State) or one Sowore in any space in Lagos State. I am a witness to the massive destruction Lives and Property we saw in Lagos during the #ENDSARS PROTESTS- a genuine protest which was hijacked by hoodlums and undesirable elements to inflict unimaginable pains and tears in the land of limitless opportunities. The professional protesters are gathering again and this time I do not expect that anybody that has Igbo blood running in him will be the part another brigandage in Lagos. What was destroyed in Lagos during so-called called #ENDSARS PROTESTS will cost more than a trillion naira to rebuild and work is yet to start. I know as a leader what I went through during those days of the locusts. May God help us to get understanding on this matter. Igbo do not destroy, they build. Now if you join the hoodlums to destroy anything again then you are one of them and you are on your own. Please in the name God stay away from any protest in Lagos on 13th February 2021. Igbo should not and should never be part of it. Please go about your normal businesses that day and ignore any call to join the protest.
