The Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has called for a probe into a post made by @Lagospedia on X (formerly Twitter), calling on the Igbo to vacate Lagos and the South-West.

The post which was posted on July 27, 2024, asking Lagosians to brace for a massive #IgboMustGo protest from August 20 to 30, 2024, has since generated controversy on social media.

The Governor while condemning the post through his media aide, Gboyega Akosile, in a statement late Thursday, noted that the governor and indeed, the Lagos State Government “wish to distance themselves from the reckless, divisive and dangerous rhetoric, saying Lagos remains home to every Nigerian citizen regardless of their ethnic nationality.”

According to him, Sanwo-Olu views the post as not only reckless and divisive but also an attempt to sow a seed of discord between the Yoruba in the South-West and other tribes, “especially those who have made Lagos their permanent place of abode.”

“The governor appeals to Lagosians not to allow any person or group of individuals to create tensions in the state, calling on the security agencies to promptly investigate those behind the handle and bring them to justice.

“Mr Governor enjoins Lagosians to ignore the post and any post of that nature, promising to double his efforts towards ensuring lasting peace in the state,” Akosile said.

Please help should be in trouble... I am Yoruba and I won't be happy if that guy is not properly dealt with.. we Yorubas have to be truthful and stop being delusional. No Igbo called for any protest. Igbos have learnt that they are always on the recieving end of every bad thing in this country and cautioned themselves not to protest yet some unreasonable elements still traced this protest to Igbos... The main people who are the Hausas who are leading this why is not one talking to them? They are scared because of election, they feel the Hausas have the numbers so that can't face them

Start with MC Oluomo and his endless hoardes of miscreants who openly threatened and harass people during the last election first. If not, this one too is another charade and facade Sanwo-Olu

Bro, we dont seek validations from others. We arent insecure like u who would want to be praised by those that lives 10000 miles away

Your opinion is yours and it ends along that bank of river Niger

A whole Ohaneshit Sec Gen called the Yorubas 'Political Rasacal' and not even one person from the whole of Alaigbo could caution him. Na u wan dey teach person about tribalism. So rich

Yes, It is a charade and we like it that way

Bar SE, SW has the highest population of Igbos in the world, yet these guys have a deep hate towards these people they grew up among.

Sanwo-Olu is doing what he deems sane, not to win u over. Whatever u think is your coffee mug

Sanwolu will rather send his fellow Yorubas packing than ask the igbos to leave Lagos.

If we count under that tweet I'm sure it won't be up to 100 persons supporting it. I'm very sure just as many have condemned it. You can't use a few peoples' actions to taint an entire tribe. There are bad apples everywhere. And it's just common sense to observe that if the majority of Yorubas indeed thought that way south easterners would be able to live in peace in the southwest, as many do indeed.

If you don't vote for me, you will only get a slice of bread soaked in water.

As you're arresting the idiot originator of igbomustgo, also arrest the old fool that made the above statement. It is him who motivated the idiot.

The governor is taking action, finally! This is what leadership looks like. Let’s see how this unfolds. Accountability is key!

The guy that started #IgbosMustGo should be given the highest chieftaincy title in igbo land and state recognition, he really got rid of unnecessary violent protest in Lagos with just a tweet, some heroes doesn't fly or equipped with exceptional powers, they are just intelligent

Sanwo-Olu dey show say e no dey play with governance.

Investigation na the right move. Make we know wetin dey happen behind the scenes.

E no good make people just dey gather without accountability. Na so wahala dey start.

I trust my governor to handle am well. Eko o ni baje!

Yorubas are not deluded and pathetic, only a foolish person will see people bring war to his land and keep quiet, the evidences are there, Awolowo was stone in igbo land just for campaign not protest, Pastor Kumuyi was threatened by igbos for wanting to have crusade in igbo land not protest, igbos threatened and insulted yoruba leaders, Pastor Adeboye, Pastor Kumuyi, Adefarasin, Wole Soyinka, Ooni of Ife, Fela Kuti that is dead, even babies was not spared, Reno Omokri's baby, Toyin Aimaku's baby, Seyi law's baby were all threatened with death, people like Charley boy, even the deceased Ohanneze president called yorubas political rascals, but we kept quiet, even Kanu Nnamdi instructed igbos to destroy yoruba properties. stop hiding behind a finger, Yorubas are not stupid.

The guy was hired to do the job

So na like this that guy dey go jail for treasonable offense alongside the clowns backing him.

Person wey ibo should start worshipping abi dem no want bia-fraud again ni... We yoruba support igbomustgo, they must leave our land by fire by force

Igbos will be treated how they treat Yorubas.
Yorubas will be treated how they treat Igbos.

Na the new way be that.

E go better if dem fit find the real masterminds behind this wahala.

Accountability must start to dey show face for this country.
