IgboMustGo threat: Law Will Catch Up with Promoters – Tinubu
President Bola Tinubu on Sunday vowed that the elements behind the call for Nigerians of South-East extraction to vacate the South-West (Yoruba land) would face the full wrath of the law.
DAILY POST reports that an account on the X microblogging platform (formerly Twitter) recently made a post campaigning for the massive hashtag “#IgboMustGo”.
The post issued a one-month ultimatum to Igbos residing in Lagos State and other parts of South-West to return to South-East.
This has triggered tension among Igbo communities in Lagos and other parts of the south-Western region.
The Lagos State Governor, Babajide Sanwo-Olu while reacting to the development, distanced himself and his government from the call.
The governor ordered security operatives to investigate those behind the handle.
Addressing the matter on Sunday, President Tinubu in his nationwide broadcast, vowed that the promoters of the IgboMustGo will not go unpunished.
He said, “To those who have taken undue advantage of this situation to threaten any section of this country, be warned: The law will catch up with you.
“There is no place for ethnic bigotry or such threats in Nigeria we seek to build”.
