Spokesman of the President-elect, Bayo Onanuga, has vowed not to apologize to Igbos over a tribalistic comment he made on Twitter. Onanuga had in a tweet warned Igbos not to ever interfere in Lagos governorship election.

“Let 2023 be the last time of Igbo interference in Lagos politics. Let there be no repeat in 2027. Lagos is like Anambra, Imo, any Nigerian state. It is not No Man’s Land, not Federal Capital Territory. It is Yoruba land. Mind your business,” he tweeted.
 
Following public backlash, Onanuga stated that he will not apologize. He wrote: “Let me make myself abundantly clear: the views I express on Twitter are my personal views. “I don’t owe anyone any apology for addressing the existential threats of our people. I am after all, first of all a Yoruba, before being a Nigerian.”

He's not shameless ----can anyone from Yoruba land go to your state, flourish there and come on social media to spew rubbish on your face? All of you crying intimidation know quite well that worst than that is going on in the villages and states that you come from. Most of you ran away from your states due to high level of insecurity and crimes and the search of greener pasture which is also the same with me. Respect the people you met on ground. Left to the northerners, an Igbo will never be a president but we, the youth in Yoruba land supported Obi...if 2027 comes, I will support him. But I will not tolerate anyone disrespecting my father'sland! When you disrespect the people, that is what you do!

I did not spew rubbish you idiot! This is not about the election but about the sheet arrogance of you people that came from nowhere. So why not? Do you know how many igbos are in the Lagos state civil service and those in various political positions? This is way back since 1999 and heaven did not fall! For you to come to another man's land and want to arrogate yourself over them will not be tolerated in Lagos, your village or elsewhere!

read what you wrote....for me, I have wonderful igbo friends and I will refrain from replying the few bastards among them. This Ojukwu of blessed memory, a hero, is the one you want to thrash but I know history and I won't dignify you.

Rubbish.  Lagos is nothing without the natural resources you are stealing from the south east and south south . 
 Why are the real Yorubas in Ogun, Osun, Oyo, Ondo and Ekiti states  not asking the Igbos to leave Yorubaland? Why Lagos?

Niki, if i ask you to show us one social media comment or opinion where a confirmed Igbo man or woman said derogatory things about all Yoruba's or about Lagos, you may struggle to find one. APC took you guys for a ride and you willingly followed because they played on your weaknesses. You got emotional because they made you believe that it is now Igbo vs Yoruba. GRV is not an Igbo man. No Igbo man contested in the Lagos Governorship election. All they did was support the Yoruba man that was contesting and that they were most comfortable with. APC turned it into a tribal thing because they know that tribalism will forever be the weak point of most Nigerians. Truth be told, Igbo people were not seeking to evict you guys from your ancestral lands, we are not marauders. All we were seeking were better people in Government, so that we can grow as a Nation. But as e be now, let hell fall on Nigeria, you will see that Igbo's will still excel. We and our brothers and sisters from the South South. Because we have mastered the art of excelling in hell. None from our side will polish peoples shoes on the streets in the sunlight. None will cut nails. NONE.

Bro let's be realistic if we scroll back to some comments back on other posts here, we'll still see comments of our Igbo brothers here spoke Ill and derogatory things about our yoruba people not to talk of other social media platforms. The truth we need to tell ourselves is that both yorubas and igbos are being played together in this tribal bias of the political parties and it worked for the party that was the strongest. If hell broke lose in Nigeria today the people that will succeed will succeed, not all igbos will, likewise not all yorubas will. We all just need to learn peace cos it matters most, and like I said both tribes were played by those political parties and not just a single party this time.

No time to be neither hot nor cold, its time to say things as it is. APC propagandists did a wonderful job of planting the ethnic divide seed and you all fell for it. Please, quote one confirmed Igbo person that said those things. As for the popular saying that Lagos is a no mans land, it was first said by a popular Yoruba Politician (Find out who). In all of this, what APC succeeded in doing is whipping up the sentiment of those that are weak in mind to have that mob action against Igbo's and ultimately prevent them from voting for the particular Yoruba man of their choice since we all know that there was no Igbo man on that Lagos State Gubernatorial ballot. As for succeeding in harsh conditions, Igbo's have been there, done that. Its only when others go through it that I can include them. Its not about theory, but practical.
