I won’t apologize for asking Igbos not to interfer with Lagos politics – Tinubu’s aide

A spokesperson of the President-elect, Bayo Onanuga has backed his comment asking Igbos never to interfere with politics in Lagos State.

Onanuga said he owes nobody any apology for asking Igbos never to interfere with the politics in Lagos State.

He explained that his comment only addressed the existential threats to Yoruba people in Lagos State.

Recall that Onanuga issued a warning on Saturday night following the conclusion of the governorship election.

According to him, 2023 should be the last time Igbo will interfere in Lagos politics, adding that the state belongs to Yoruba.

Restating his warning, Onanuga tweeted: “Let me make myself abundantly clear: the views I express on Twitter are my personal views.

“I don’t owe anyone any apology for addressing the existential threats of our people. I am after all, first of all a Yoruba, before being a Nigerian.”
