Emmanuel Iwuanyanwu, Chairman of the Council of Elders, Ohanaeze Ndigbo has taken Yoruba to the cleaners.

He said: “I want to let our people in Lagos know, on Wednesday, I called a meeting of the Ohanaeze council of elders worldwide and we x-rayed the events in Lagos.”

“I want to tell you that people who attended are from the branches in America, Canada, Europe, London, and Nigeria. We have resolved and I want those from Lagos to go home and tell those in Lagos that we have resolved that never again can we allow anybody to take the life of any innocent Igbo person. All of us are going to fight the person. Never again!”

“We are in Nigeria and we have invested in Nigeria. Our investments are so much, we are not going to take the question of people telling us to go, we are not going anywhere.”

“And I want to tell those in Lagos to realise that there is no war between us and Yorubas. Yorubas are with us. There are just political rascals, and we’re going to handle them.”

“The elders have directed the secretary general of Ohanaeze Ndigbo, Okey Emuchay to set up a commission of inquiry to find out things destroyed; people are going to pay.”
