Osita Okechukwu, the director-general of Voice of Nigeria, VON, has said Femi Fani-Kayode and Bayo Onanuga are not speaking for president-elect Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
According to Okechukwu, the inciting and tribal sentiments being shared by these people does not reflect the position of Tinubu, who he, [Osita] claimed to know very well.
Following the conclusion of Saturday’s Governorship election in Lagos State, Onanuga warned Igbos against “interfering” with politics in the state.
According to him, ”2023 should be the last time Igbos interfere in Lagos politics”, adding that the state belongs to Yoruba.
Fani-Kayode, a former Aviation Minister has also been very active on social media making offensive comments and ethnic profiling which have even come to the knowledge of the British High Commission in Nigeria.
Appearing on Arise TV on Tuesday, Okechukwu condemned the comments by the spokespersons of Tinubu and APC, saying that he has lived in the South West for twenty-nine years without encountering any issues with the Yorubas.
“For somebody like myself, I lived 35 years in the North and 29 years in the South East and five years in the South West. Will I today start condensing a Northerner? The paper that brought me to Abuja was signed by a Yoruba man.
