AN HONEST ADVICE FOR IGBO ACROSS NIGERIA ESPECIALLY LAGOS

by Joe Igbokwe

I am the leader of Ndigbo in APC Lagos. I have lived in Lagos for more than 40 years, and I understand Lagos dynamics and politics very well.

I know what I went through and what I experienced during the #Endsars protest in Lagos in October 2020 which opened a can of worms that shook the long existing cordial relationship and understanding between Igbo and the owners of Lagos.

The Endsars bandits are gathering again, and this time, we see hands of Labour Party followers everywhere. They are yet to come to terms with the colossal loss of 2023 Presidential Elections . They are still bitter to the marrows. They are not done yet. They are gathering again. They are networking again. They are spitting fire and brimstone once again. But dynamics have changed. It is not business as usual. But please know this and have inner peace: 2020 is not 2024. I will not speak further. Read my lips.

A lot lessons were learnt by the leaders of Lagos and they said and I witnessed it with my own two eyes that NEVER AGAIN will they allow any group of people or protesters to play the unfortunate October 2020 game in Lagos that led massive destruction of the economic nerve center and the pride of Nigeria. The destructive Messages that were issued to them by their leader is still with the Lagos State Government.

I am speaking as an insider who has seen it all and let me say this: If you are one of those bandits trying to stage a comeback to test the will Lagos leaders and finish the unfinished business of destroying Lagos, I fear for you. Please, in the name of whatever you believe in, leave Lagos in your own interest. Read my lips and learn. You do not tell a deaf and dumb man that war has started. If he sees others running, he will run also. History has shown that men have not learnt anything from history.

Eneke the bird says that since men have learnt to shoot without missing, it has learnt to fly without perching. In the same vein, since Lagos has learnt to shoot without missing, it is wise for inhabitants in Lagos to take precautionary measures and secure themselves. Woe betide any group of people or persons who want to confront the ugly history again in Lagos. It would be better if such people were not born.

History has shown that men have not learnt anything from history. Only fools do not learn from history. I can take a horse to the river, but I can not force it to drink. Former CP Lagos retired AIG Odumosu (Tango One) says: “IF YOU SEE SOMETHING SAY SOMETHING” Let history be my witness. Good morning, everyone.

Joe Igbokwe also shared some pictures from the last EndSars protest.

Please see below what the so-called #ENDSARS Protesters left in Lagos in October 2020. Estimate of the monumental destruction run into billions and today Lagos is yet to recover from the assault.

What started like a joke ended in an unmitigated disaster and catastrophe never known in the history of Lagos . They put BRT out of business after burning hundreds of the Buses, they attacked high courts , police stations, they looted warehouses, they lied that 100 people were killed in Lagos and consequently instigated mayhem and destruction of Lagos, the type never known in the history of Nigeria. NEVER AGAIN IN LAGOS!!!

I see where Joe Igbokwe is coming from. Unemployed 21 years old Chinasa Michael from Anambra that burnt a BRT station and buses is still fresh in the mind of Lagosians.

Obidients have been holding spaces about how they will cause mayhem.

Some were even tweeting pictures of some high profile people like the CJN, Toyin Abraham e.t.c as their targets.

Lagosians will stand against any protest. People were shocked to learn that Nnamidi kanu was actually given instruction to Igbo to destroy Lagos during end SARS protest.

APC would annoy igbos to the extent not only would we protest we would lead it too .. Let the heaven that wants to fall fall

First it was Useless Hope.. Now banished Joe

Let igbos be, no nobody forced us to say we are not protesting, no meeting was held, igbos just generally felt same and it sticked

Do like u are commanding Igbos and watch us shout down Nigeria

No political appointment for Joe Igbokwe yet? Not even commissioner for drainage which he enjoyed in the last administration.
Na wa o!

Anyways, Igbos in Lagos will be busy in their shops making money while the protest go on.
He should advise Sowore a Yoruba man who wants to spearhead the protest in Lagos.

Wonderful warning message from Joe.

Why are the Igbos in nairaland angry that Joe warned them not to protest. Isn't that what you guys are also saying on nairaland that you will not protest.

Even though majority of those holding spaces on twitter about how they will protest are majorly igbos too.

Lol. Same here. They have labelled Uncle Joe an "efulefu" since 1902.

Good luck to them if they want to disregard his advice. Man has said it all just like some of us already warned them.

But he is only giving his kinsmen a sound warning so that EndSars destruction doesn't repeat itself. I wonder why some posters are angry with him.

This gutter commissioner is here again with propaganda to please his Lagos masters.

You have been living in Lagos for 40 years like an osu ostracized from his fatherland.


Protest is the right of citizens whether your candidate lost or won the last election.


If the protest is hijacked or become violent, then the security system is to blame for incompetence.


Enough is enough. People who complain without acting will die being cowards.

ok


Lagos is not the capital of Nigeria. Take your protest to your State or Abuja.
Any attempt to destroy Lagos will be met with stiff resistance and reprisals on the perpetrators.

If you want to protest and cause destruction. It will be a good idea if you travel to your state to do that. E.g. Otti has refused to pay even 30,000. He wants to continue paying 18,000 per month, while he is allocating billions for himself as food allowance and welfare. He is even owing as much as 11 months salary too.

He does have one about some people selling their women and girl child for a certain amount, and even adding Jara.
