I Will Ensure Peace Reigns Between Igbos And Yorubas In Lagos - Uzodimma by bennybuhari: 9:07pm On Jun 30, 2023 |
Imo State Governor, Senator Hope Uzodimma on Friday assured Igbos living in Lagos that he would broker an enduring peace between them and the Yorubas to ensure peaceful coexistence based on mutual respect for each side. He said he would meet with the Governor of Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo Olu, and other stakeholders to broker an enduring peace between Igbos and their Yoruba brothers. Senator Uzodimma spoke when he met with different Igbo interest groups in Lagos amid rising tension as a result of the fallout of the 2023 general election. The Governor described as unfortunate the misunderstanding among some Yorubas and Igbos as a result of political differences , assuring that the situation will normalize soon. He noted that although the constitution of Nigeria guarantees everyone the right to reside in any part of the country, the owners of the land must be accorded the necessary respect. He traced the relationship between Igbos and Yorubas to many decades, resulting in marriages and business partnerships, saying that he would work towards the renewal and strengthening of that relationship. Uzodimma who is the Chairman of South East Governors' Forum urged them not to panic as he would lead a delegation of Igbo intelligentsia and other stakeholders in Lagos to meet with the Lagos State government and stakeholders from Lagos. Earlier, Representatives of the various groups in Lagos had commended Governor Uzodimma for answering their distress call to wade into the crisis of confidence between them and their Yoruba brothers living in Lagos. They canvassed the intervention of the Governor for a peaceful resolution of the misunderstanding to enable them carry out their businesses in peace under a relaxed atmosphere. In their separate speeches, the leader of Ohanaeze Ndigbo in Lagos, Chief Sunday Osaiah, regretted the misunderstanding among some Yorubas and Igbos and described it as unfortunate. He disclosed that Igbos in Lagos sent a distress call to Governor Uzodimma for him to leverage on his excellent relationship with President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, to bring a lasting solution to the problem. Also speaking, the President of Ndigbo Lagos, General Austin Umahi (Rtd) expressed appreciation to Governor Uzodimma for his quick response to the distress call from his brothers in Lagos. He thanked the organisers for putting the meeting together. He assured the Governor that Igbos in Lagos were not planning to relocate outside Lagos but wanted to be guaranteed a conducive atmosphere to live and transact their businesses. Others who spoke along the same lines include, President of Igbo Amaka, Chief Obinna Ukatu, Mazi Sam Ohuabunwa, former MD/CEO of Pfizer, Chief Obi Azodo, Chairman, Marbles Gardens Estate and representative of the Oil and Gas Sector, Mrs. Uju Ifejika. https://worldviewafrica.com/i-will-broker-peace-between-igbos-yorubas-in-lagos-uzodimma/

There has always been peace between Igbos and Yorubas until some primitive people from outside Lagos started claiming indigeneship of Lagos and accusing Igbos of trying to rule Lagos State even when there was no Igbo candidates or deputy in the governorship elections across all parties. Igbos, Yorubas, Hausas and other Nigerians joined together and voted for Peter Obi and he won Lagos State but APC in order to create animosity attributed all his votes to Igbos and in utmost panic that they could lose the Governorship election embarked on a campaign of calumny against Igbos and Yorubas who are not in support of APC. Outside recent politics Igbos and Yorubas don't have any major issues and relate very well as Kunle will not stop chasing chocolate skinned Onyinye while Ebuka is ready to die ontop Bola big yansh. Hope Uzodinma is a politician and they are the source of the bad blood and its better they stay out and allow the people to heal and recover from the shock of events that occurred during the last elections 7 Likes |

Just dey play. Where is that Eze Kirikiri man? The fuulissh man don dey rot for prison nao and any other nuisance like him will meet the same fate. It seems other people like him respected themselves now, since they know any noise they make na Kirikiri straight then go land. Even if Obi of Onitsha trespass for Lagos, we go lock am up.

Hopefully, all sides sheath their swords. At the end of the day, all humans are individuals trying to find their ways individually, and hence should all agreeably desist from blanket coloring of any set of people. There are good people everywhere. Same with bad people. bennybuhari: |

Igbos sponsored Chinadu of labour party and other candidates who are Igbos in labour party for an election in Yoruba land that you know and they claimed Lagos is no man's land which is laughable. Can Igbos accept that in south east? ...Enugu people will not even allow Abia person to contest in Enugu and vice versa how much more an outside? Can Igbos try it in the North? Igbo should stay away from Lagos (Yoruba politics) politics if they want to contest for any election they should go to their state. This nonsense will not happen in 2027. Enough is enough.
