The Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu met with the leaders of
Ohaneze Ndigbo group led by Chief Ralph Obioha, chairman of the
Caretaker Committee, to resolve issues bordering on the threat he made
to the Igbos resident in Lagos concerning tomorrow's governorship
election and his demand that they vote for his chosen candidate, APC's
Akinwunmi Ambode, or be ready to swim in the lagoon...:-)
According to The Sun, the Oba said people
were just making a mountain out of a molehill. He explained that he had
no hard feelings towards the Igbos in his kingdom, adding that majority
of them who are traders use his shops at Isale Eko. He pleaded that the
Igbos should just respect his feelings as he sees Ambode as a son who he
wants to see in power. The Oba who had to break his siesta to meet the
Igbo leaders said everything would be settled after Saturday's election.
Other Igbo leaders at the meeting included Chief Onwuka Ukwa (Ebonyi State); Chief Haruna Ajah (Ebonyi State); Chief Ignatius Okamene (Imo State) and Chief Mrs. Pat Udoye (Ebugu State).

All said, and done. Dis words of his "everything would be settled after Saturday's election" needs clarification. I wonder if he is too big to apologise for his unguided statement.

Rubbish! Dats why igbos can neva get a gud position in the mainstream. Why won't the ohaneze demand an apology frm the oba? Or is he 2 big 2 apologize. See hw they are jst smiling wit him as tho he didn't mk all those threatening comment!
IGBO LEADERS BETRAYING US SINCE THE BEGINNING OF THE WORLD. SMH, WHY GO AND MEET SOMEONE WHO INSULTS YOU AND THROW TREATS TO YOU AND YOUR HOUSEHOLD. TUFIAKWA. LORD DEE
And some people here are loosing sleep over the threat made behind closed doors.Now the oba and the big shots in igboland have settled their differences.Left for us all to bury the hatchet in the lagoon /Atlantic ocean and move on.
The fear of Ohaneze ndi igbo is the beginning of wisdom for Oba. Damage control. Oga eme gi voom na anya. #SaiJimi
And no apologies?
He shuld beta mind his tongue ooo
He broke his siesta.......soo I shld use my bra as sunglasses nw or catapult
Useless confused igbo leaders...
And they will bow? SMH!!!
What a dumb statement! So the future of Lagos is now about the 'Oba's Feelings'? It gets worse...Stays shooting APC in the foot....
is Oba trying to reverse his words?

#TeamBlessed#
Lolz @ Ebugu State, Anty IkejiLinda
Until Oba Akiolu makes a formal apology to us igbos, he continues to remain a fool. Tell him I said so
sharap
Ohaneze does not speak for igbo nation sorry mr oba.
We are not forgiving you simple.
Sale out animals called ohaneze has done what they re known for
Since old men no longer respect themselves, we the younger ones will help insult them. Rubbish

Vote wisely, vote /AmbodeAPC
Seen
Is it not coming to late? Why now? A day to d gov elections. Igbos beware
All this political stunt, can someone please tell the Oba and his people that we Igbo's are not fools. we want to see your worse, so we are decided to vote who we like and want.
Please let these matter rest.
Good
Your comment will be visible after approval
Hard feelings or no hard feelings, ...we ready 4d lagoon..so we votin PDP...
So Linda you've create a state out of Enugu and Eboyi to form Ebugu State?
Lol @Ebugu state
Una well done o! All of you should just know that ukwu na-aga wara wara, anya na-aga wara wara na-ahu ya o. That's my advice for all of you. Ndi amuma ugha!
The Ibos/Igbos should get over this already. With all due respect, they are the most tribalistic of all the tribes in Nigeria. They even discriminate amongst themselves. They dont employ any other tribe in their civil service. I served in Enugu state, its just so obvious and yet they want to come and hold leadership positions in Lagos; trying to sell the argument that Lagos is no man's land, No o, Lagos fell from heaven na...abeggi. I dont support the Oba's use of language but all the same...everybody should move on
This Oba is too arrogant/over confident. We re not in stone age. Swallow ur pride (it does not contain fat) and make/issue proper apology. Can't believe this man was once an IGP. He should be smarter than all these. Unless he's indirectly rooting for Jimi who's actually his relative
The Oba of APC should apologize to the Ibos.
Odikwa really egwu @ after election settlement!
That's not an apology....by the way which Igbo chief is Haruna?.....after meeting with Haruna he will say he met with Ohaneze ndi Igbo...
No problem we don't have no grudges we have to move on.
Bliss
Dats mature
I hope people can finally let this thing rest! Wike is threatening war everywhere, no one is talking! PDP members were the ones making a mountain out of a mole hill, thereby making people over react. Desperate cows called PDP. Brace yourselves for a crash.
Did they come with their life jacket?
Ebugu state? Linda??? Ok please post this comment oh.
Story for the ancestors. Jk for life. Engr Emy
Wia is Ebugu state? Aunty Linda....u don dey slack abi u don employ pple? u comment postin is rili slow cos dat is wah actually kips me entertained.....
*mtchew*
We will still not vote for Ambode
Ignos let's stop letting PDP and Jimi use us. We have always lived in peace with Yorubas in Lagos
This Igbo men.....dem fit sell their pikin for money, pls Vote wisely. If Ambode is ur choice vote, if JK is ur choice then vote him.
What will be settled after election?. He can't even apologize and be sorry for cursing and threatening us. What an arrogant man too full of himself. Why would u want him in power cos u see him as ur son? Is this not democracy? Is this not supposed to be people's choice? Na like this naija go get better?. Everyone fighting for his pocket and not for the well being of the entire citizens. You have to sincerely apologize. That is true example of a good leader. No one is above making a mistakes. so also should no one should be too big to apologize. Stop being bossy Mr. Oga. Obama. Mstcheeeeeew!!!
Those people are not Igbo leaders and are on their own. Igbos are peculiar and blessed people. No threat against their lives will prosper. People should vote for their preferred candidate. This is democracy.
Good move
We're over this issue! I'm sure people will go out tomorrow to vote for their candidate. I just hope the aftermath of the elections won't be bloody if Ambode loses. Nigeria didn't divide after the presidential elections and it definitely won't do so because of the Lagos gubernatorial elections.
We shouldn't allow ourselves to be used by politicians. I think Lagos may benefit more from the Federal government if an APC winner emerges. But then again, that's my opinion. We are all entitled to our opinions.
DO U ALL THINK IBO PEOPLE ARE BEING FAIR TO YORUBAS IN LAGOS? WILL IBOS ALLOW YORUBAS OR HAUSAS TO DICTATE WHO RULES IN THE EAST? WUD HAUSAS ALLOW ANYONE DO THIS AS WELL IN THE NORTH?

I've told u to caution ur editors,Linda.
So disgusting to see these silly mistakes coming from ur empire.
Stupid ohaneze... See how they r smiling as if they r taking pics with d pope...the truth is dat igbos dnt ve a central head or authority dat can speak on behalf of d whole Ibo race... We Dnt know these pple
Since there is no Abia and Anambra chief in the meeting, I consider it not concluded.
Ok ooooo. I ve heard, but why after election and not now?
A lawyer, Atueyi Chukwudi Felix, has revealed why he and other Igbo people who were at the palace of Oba of Lagos, Oba Rilwan Akiolu, laughed and clapped when he threatened and cursed Igbo if they did not vote for the All Progressives Congress governorship candidate, Akinwunmi Ambode.
Felix said Akiolu was only joking and speaking with them as friends, adding that friends were always free with one another.
He alleged that the person who did the video the event and made it public had a political motive.
The motive, he said, was to curry favour for the Peoples Democratic Party.
Felix noted that he felt it was expedient for him to speak up before things get out of hand.
He said: “I strongly suspect that all this is being portrayed in this manner simply to curry votes for the Saturday’s coming election, which is already at hand.”
He stated that the ongoing saga might compel some people, who had hitherto been indifferent to their civic duty, to go out of anger and vote against the Oba’s advice, just to dare him.
He said: “What the Oba said was fully and simply directed to only the Igbos present at the meeting who His Majesty considered to be very close to him and should understand him well enough.
“When one talks to his very close friends, he tends to be very free with them.
“He was being very free with those present at the meeting and wanted us to realize how serious and close he takes us and our votes because he could not imagine us giving him our words only to turn back and do the very opposite.”
Felix stressed that Akiolu did not force them to the meeting.
According to him: “We were the ones that went to him on solidarity visit, so it would be very evil of us to only go and deceive him there.
“He only jokingly warned the people present at the meeting who he considered his own people.”
The lawyer argued that if close attention was paid to the video, which went viral, Nigerians would discover that there was no specific point he referred to ‘all the Igbos in Lagos.’
He said that it was because they were close friends to Akiolu and understood him quite well that those of them present at the occasion applauded and laughed at the end of his speech.
“We were expected to thereafter talk to our people in civilized manner to convince them and canvass for their votes if we truly believe we are capable of doing so,” said Felix. “The tradition of lagoon water threat was directed only to those present there at the meeting, jokingly as culture demands. Although he appeared serious, but we all understood it as a joke, that was why we all applauded him and made fun of it there.”
Felix said that he was shocked at the twist the play took after the video went viral, stressing that he suspected serious politics at play.
He said he wouldn’t know who recorded the speech and decided to play politics with it, but “it’s most unfair to his majesty to be portrayed in this manner.”

Linda you talk anyhow,where you there,u keep causing problem with your blog when there is none,.If you dont have wat to blog about keep quiet..
Chai. Pls check out naijacarlovers.blogspot.com today. Cheers
Foolish traitors, may God's wrath fall upon you betrayers, we are not cowards like the 2 faced yorubas and if u had any sense, u will get the obas message that till after Saturday's elections before he would resolve anything, so he's trying to tell u he stands by his threats
Clearly the whole thing was blown out of proportion
he's still hasn't addressed anything. just asked us to 'understand' why he had to threaten peopel with death. after all, there are his subjects who even occupy his shops. and afte rall, its not his fault that we're all making a mountain out of a molehill!
...and oh if he could cut short his afternoon nap to speak to the ibo leaders then that's a very very big deal indeed!
i think he said exactly what he meant and meant exactly what he said about the lagoon. its okay he's entitled to his opinions.
The fact still remains that the Oba does not know his boundaries as a leader. As a traditional ruler, he does not have any rights to tell people who to vote or not vote period! Whether Ambode is his son or his father is immaterial! He has no rights to determine our franchise. Does he know that there are some Yorubas who are not going to vote ambode, he is so hateful and tribalistic no beating about the bush. The fire he is preparing will burn him soon. Shebi Lagos na heaven.
They are fools!!! The Oba still doesn't seen to be remorseful.
Biko!!! Its all a farce..only God knows aw mch he paid the so called leaders..did he say mountain out of a mole hill? That statement alone was a mountain, the ibos only helped sharpen the edges..the fact that he mentioned the ibos particularly shows some sort of animosity on his part towards us..he should gan continue his yeye siesta
And you called those turncoats Igbo leaders? You are kidding me. They are neither Igbo leaders nor are they representing any Igbo person other than themselves and the very desperate Rochas. What nonsense.
lolzzzzzz.....and d igbo followers are giving themselves headache.........
POLITRIKS
Moye says so via BB Passport...Courtesy LIB....
He did not even apologize.
Thank God o
Thank God o
So this local baba is too big to apologize? Mtcheeew. Dear all go out tomorrow and vote your choice. SAY NO TO gODFATHERISM.
I think the winner of tommorow election in Lagos is THE OBA OF LAGOS. I know u want to know why
After that comment he made , which I totally think is not cool at all, the PDP in their usual self took advantage of it and so doing now pitching the igbos against their host community. This now bring back the argument of who really own Lagos. So we lagosian see agba he as Igbo candidate ( he was at alaba yesterday telling the Igbo to push APC to lagoon with their PVC) and it's rally now that we av to really prove who really own Lagos and let them know Igbo cannot and will never dictate who rule our land for us
EKO O NI BAJE
known anonymous
These people do not stand for the Igbos interest... They are selfish cowards for refusing to ask akiolu to apologize... Tomorrow we're voting JK, go kill yoself
which one be Ebugu state again Linda??
Lagos, vote wisely
I used to feel sad about the way the ibos were being marginalised in Nigeria, but now, I think the greatest problem the ibos have, are their leaders, and the ibos themselves.
first they went to visit the oba, who then rained curses on them and their children. They then went away to rant and rave on social media and in the press.
After all that, the oba did not call a press conference to publicly apologise, or organise a proper visit to try and atone, instead, the 'igbo leaders' arranged themselves like slaves to go back to meet him, to show their 'support, and lack of grudge holding' and the kind Oba was generous enough to 'interrupt his sleep' and talk to his 'not yet drowned' subjects, while issuing a veiled threat about owning the shops where tney earn their living. ?..
what a shame. What nonsense..
can he try that rubbish with hausa leaders, and if by chance he did, would they run back to him like slaves to show unlimited support.
I have a lot more to say, but I think i'll stop here. I'm so annoyed and irritated by this crap.
The meeting has not changed anything! He is still insisting the the Ibos must for vote his Candidate and that come Saturday after the Election, they can then settle scores!
Akuko ifo
It was not like he apologised. There was nothing here to show that he apologised to them. Although he is entitled to his own opinion. There is freedom of speech.
Dont care
See them smiling sheepishly like the fools they are.
Ohaneze ndi family unu. Kitikpa lacha kwa unu amu dia.
No p Oba,till after Saturday
Ike gwuru...but what you must know is that they do not represent the opinion of the rest of the Ibos concerning this matter
Hmmmmm. Scores will be settled after elections? This is just the height of ranting.
I'm just disappointed with Igbo leaders ehh,they have acted foolishly how could they went to visit who promises you hell after 7days if his candidate didn't win,this absolutely disgrace to Igbo as a people,dose that mean if Igbo didn't trade here in Lagos there is no other place to trade? At Anambra we had the largest market in west Africa called (Onitsha Main Market)why not IBO's have rethink and went to their various places and start now to developed it,let Oba perish with his Lagos,a fool at 80's is a fool forever,IBO's beware of calamities ahead,the wise one has spoken
no sense talk
pls read between d lines....he PLEADED that the Igbos should just respect his feelings....
Can you imagine. Still no apology from him
What I know as per yoruba culture is that the Obas don't apologize, its in their culture so let's respect their culture, he has use style and majority of the yorubas has said sorry oN his behalf. To err is human, as for me I have forgiven him. Sai Ambode.
Yes igbo have d power to dictate who rule s Lagos bcoz igbos are 40% and d rest has 60 wit 30 to JK and 30 to d oda dat leaves igbos to decided who rules
Guys out leaders are right for going to settle things, they know PDP is only trying to use Igbos in it's desperation
who made these foolish sychophants igbo leaders? They are only representing their various families. which igbo leader when there is nobody from Anambra State. Can Igbo be complete without Anambra? that is why you should know that they are not representing anybody but keep fooling themselves with the yeye oba that doesn't understand the importance of the position he occupies. Once a police always a police. mtschew!
He did NOT apologize. It is like you spit on my face and you tell me that I should not be annoyed that I should understand that my face deserved to be spit on. Those Igbo chiefs are cowards and do not represent the Igbos. Shameless old men.
I have noticed throughout this period that it is old men who we look up to that have been messing up. Such as the Orubebe fool and now this thug called Oba.
Igbo's are bold,brave and intelligent the time to respond to Local ordinary Oba will come not now
Noticed quite a number of typos in your posts this morning. Linda I di ok?
Bullshit, OBA apologize to ndi Igbo.
Oba's Jibe was way out of this world. Igbos have contributed immensely to the economic development of Lagos-state, that he himself he's feeding on: from maritime, Oil & gas, Importation & Exportation, Trading, tankers, customs just name it Igbos are there. He shld have respected them in the first place.
it is a pity he won't apologise for being Oba. it is a free world and this is democracy. you cannot force ppl to do something. you can only persuade 'em
Arrant Nonsense! why all the fuse and do we dare say a Traditional Ruler of his status is NOW into politics? Its A SHAME!!!
U will wait till eternity
This ain't apology
Let him apologize first
He did not apologise so; any death after the election, must be on his head. Arrogant oba.
Obaz dont apologize to anyone in his KINGDOM,And yes he is that highly placed in the culture...anyone who z expecting an apology of sort is sitting on a very longggg tin...Lets Move on.

Remorseful my ass. If u are nt satisfied get out of Lagos.
Just shut up
Thank u solomon, if they(Visitors) are still not satisfy the shld get out of lagos an go to there states where they can control there kings.
Good morning Linda
Until our Government start addressing this kind of comments and start making every body pay for their own stupidity things like this will continue, this is one of the things that keep us away from our beloved Country called Nigeria, I really want to know why that Idiotic Oba is still not yet arrested, also the guy that think he is the spoke person for OPC, you Linda and all the LIB readers should not let this be swept under the carpet, that is the work of social media, this kind of statements is very bad no matter to whom it is addressed to, if not how the world do we claim one Nigeria,
Nigeria as a nation had lost and is still losing all the professional to western world, not because we don't like our Country and want to pay back to the Land we come from.
Comments like that of the Oba put shock down any body that is not from yoruba spine, Nigeria is this place good citizens are not allowed to own fire arms, what will anybody do when some idiot come to breakdown your prison yard bars in the middle of the night to ask you to go with them to be killed, you can't even defend yourself and your household, mean while all the idiots are armed with gun cutlass and the rest.
NIGERIA SHOULD WAKE UP AND HOLD PEOPLE ACCOUNTABLE TO THERE IDIOTIC BENT BRAIN DEAD WAYS.
that MIAMI FLORIDA STATE BOY
Mechu onu dia! Ewu! I don't know what part of Igbo land you come from? Do you expect a king to apologise to commoners? A king will apologise to a king. If Ezes say that they are ok with what he said in private, then who are you to question titled men? After all, the Oba made that statement in a PRIVATE meeting, so he can apologise privately. The fact that the earlier "threat" was secretly recorded is not his fault.
Thought he denied saying such, what happens when you talk before you think, instead of vice versa.
anon 12.45 u shut da fuck mumu
dont move on kip looking for trouble foolish bastard if dem no die cari gun go kill them olori buruku
Jk we trust

You are lying and you know it.
If what Oba said is a joke as our learned lawyer Chukwudi A. Felix made us understand, then it is an expensive joke, and some one like Oba Akiolu who know the African tradition more than my very self; know very well what it meant to place a curse on some body, or group, and therefore should face whatever reactions and comments coming to him.
This Oba is too arrogant/over confident. We re not in stone age. Swallow ur pride (it does not contain fat) and make/issue proper apology. Can't believe this man was once an IGP. He should be smarter than all these. Unless he's indirectly rooting for Jimi who's actually his relative

all of you saying Oba didn't apologize are just stupid. you want a whole king to take back his words right? can your igwe abi obi take back his words. you people respect tradition in your villages but when you come to lagos, u take it to be a no man's land where no tradition counts. even England as big as it is have tradition. to be a citizen, you have to swear your allegiance to the Queen. whatever she says, good or bad cannot be taken back. Oba made peace with your Indigbos and u are still waiting for him to prostrate and beg you people abi. eyin omo irankiran jatijati yi. if you are not pleased, abeg pack your things and go back to your villages.nonsense and rubbish.
you people should stop posting comments, am tired of reading
Whatever decision you make at the polling station tomorrow, DO NOT base it on revenge or anger. Vote for who you believe is the best candidate for the job else you would just be a pawn in a game for or against one party.
If the Oba promised them contracts, will they release the video and ask you and I to clap for the Oba? Why did they go to see him to pledge their support? Did they tell us to come and join them? As much as I was angered by his statements I have thought it through and I believe that whoever released that video is trying to USE US to achieve their selfish goal. Why did they not express displeasure there and then?
If it is true that the entourage were led by that man who with the help of his brother wrecked havoc in Anambra state then I cannot stand with them for they are not men of integrity. They cause commotion and use it for their own gain.
My people, be wise and think of how your decision will affect YOU and your family. If you think the APC candidate will make Lagos better for you, vote for him. If you think it's the PDP candidate, then vote for him.
I have posted a comment earlier before reading this post and this is exactly what I'm saying.
People are so gullible and allowing the politicians to play upon their intelligence. The right thing is what Ohaneze Ndigbo has done.The statement could have as well being directed to any group in the southwest or Lagos or even to people among the Oba's Kinsmen who angered him. in such situation it is the group that will go to him to appeal and appease him to explain their action or inaction. That is the culture and tradition which non-indigene should identify with.Those making unguarded comments do not know what had transpired between the Oba and the Ezes before he made the threat to them and not to the Igbos.
And the Igbos fell for it bcos they're too emotional, and crying victim all the time.

That guy needs to publicly apologise or nothing more...lets not paint dis issue.
I'm seeing where one man is bigger than a tribe
only when the oba publicly apologises
Who built Lagos economy?Is it your lazy tribe?Let ibo stay at home for a day in Lagos and get the true picture....You don't know what your saying
Na dat picking selling built Lagos economy wey u de carry make mouth
This lagos wey u carry de make mouth was collectively built wt federal fundsoooo.everybody put hand build ammm
Felix dont be a coward.I expect much from you.You went as an ambassador of Ndigbo.Okwa eziokwu? If that's the case.It was an insult whether jokingly or whatever
Na siddon look I dey. Whichever way it goes tomorrow, Igbo's will still be the greatest loser. APC is already controlling Federal, Igbo indigene will hear it loud and clear in the next four years and more. One thing I am sure of is that in the next 20 years, an Igbo man cannot smell presidency.
When Jimi uses and dump you like a piece of trash that you are; he will embrace his brothers cos East,North or South home is the best.
If you like import all your illiterate brothers from Onitsha into Lagos tomorrow, APC will still control you for the next four years. Very ungrateful tribe, that is why Hausa's butcher you like chicken.
linda, omo Igbo in Lagos (Yoruba land), if you like don't post, at least you have read it.
Igbo, awon omo irankiran.
Who do you think you igbos are self? Do you expect him to prostrate and start begging una abi. He has come out in every form to discard the so claims and promise better welfare packages for una. What else do you want. Make una do ur worse now, better still go drag am for cloth make him kneel down to beg. Very annoying
Listen to his words" they use his shops at Isale Eko"
Like it's for free, don't they pay for it
This retired wicked policeman has no brain
Nigerians like you are never satisfy until we plug out our hearts to help. Even if he wants to give the shop out for free will he give it to the igbos? Stop asking for more than you worth. The land belongs to the Yoruba and we have accommodated all tribes including Yoruba. We love you all as you have joined to the success of our land but please know that democratically that you are a Lagosian and entitled to equality but traditionally you are not entitled. Know your stand and shut the fuck up already
One Nigeria
