IGBO PROGRESSIVES IN AMUWO ODOFIN CONDEMN LASIEC'S INDECISION AND HON. VALENTINE BURAIMOH'S INFIDELITY

The Igbo progressives who recently joined the All Progressives Congress, APC, in March this year have expressed their disappointment over the party's inability to make decisions and stand on it.

According to the Igbo progressives , Hon. Dipo Oloruninu of APC, was given the mandate to fly the flag of APC in the coming Lagos LG election sequel to his victory in the recent primary election held in Amuwo Odofin, but later some forces in Lagos State Independent Electoral Commission, LASIEC bowed to pressures from the defeated incumbent executive chairman, Engr.Valentine Buraimoh, and also gave him the party's form, a behaviour they called unfortunate and dangerous, especially as it could set the local govt on fire.

The Igbo APC entrants noted that the confusion the double standard has created has set tongues wagging as to whether Hon. Dipo was truly chosen.
They noted that this is the first time the Igbos will come out en mass to support a candidate who they strongly believe has the interest of the Igbos in mind.

Lamenting further, the Igbos threatened that in subsequent elections, they will not show any form of interest in choosing any candidate of the APC, let alone coming out in large number to vote for such.
More so , the Igbos said that their negative mentality about the APC changed since Hon. Dipo was chosen and an Igbo person selected as his vice, emphasising that this new development from LASIEC could further jeopardize the recent faith the Igbos have in the APC leadership.

Hon. Valentine Braimoh has once again shown his incompetence and trickery by forging the recent result of the chairmanship primary elections, by obliterating Hon. Dipo's name and fixing his name instead, a name they said was already endorsed by LASIEC to take the people of Amuwo Odofin into the next level. They however affirmed

" To this effect, we call on the national leader of APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to save the name and integrity of the party in Lagos by looking into this matter to ensure that APC will always be firm and credible with their choices.
"This recent attitude of Hon. Valentine will spell doom for the party".

you are a very fol ish person for such statement. In the face of outright theft and jettisoning of people's mandate,you could come out and say such.your are a disgrace to what the yorubas call omoluabi

I wholeheartedly support what party leaders and LASIEC has done with regards to the situation at Amuwo Ododin L G in Lagos.

Anybody that feels otherwise could vote against the party during the general elections in July.

The simpleton shot himself in the leg by picking an Igbo as his running mate. People that do not believe in Nigeria and are trying to bring her down should not benefit from Nigeria's electoral process. Better still, they are free to go to their enclave to seek electoral post.

The comment of Sir Ahmadu Bello in the sixties about some greedy people readily comes to mind.

This is what we are saying... let the igbos go yr govt refused, let them be infused in the system of govt to show you are not biased or tribalistic and u refused too..
60% of igbos do business and live in Amuwo odofin, for the very first time, there has been massive support from igbos to come out for the voting exercise cos they have Hopes that the system is beginning to accept them and here u are talking tribalism again, the yorubas too wants their nation so why peg division on igbos alone... I chose the non tribalistic, I chose Hon. Dipo Oloruninu all the way

You guys should settle the matter amicably we are one family.
